This is the last in the series and it's the one that represents me. Photo blocked by adult filter: "picture" I've done a bit more with the basing than usual by using some flowers from Scenic Express. Photo blocked by adult filter: "picture" There are some things that need improvement still. The highlights on those chaps is sloppy and although I was trying for a worn and grungy look, they came out a bit chalky. Photo blocked by adult filter: "picture" The duster is okay, but it lacks depth of colour. Now here's a pic of me at aged 17 and I think I looked a bit like her so that's why I chose this fig for myself. Photo blocked by adult filter: "picture" The figure is 25mm from Reaper and was sculpted by Bob Ridolfi. There's some stories about me as a teen that go with this figure and if you're curious to find out what a hellion I was back then you can follow the link. link |

Both the fig and the pic are very nice! I can see the resemblance despite, um, the sweater
;o) |

The resemblance is striking, actually. Nice mini. I'm sure the boys in high school would have appreciated it greatly had you dressed more like your tiny counterpart. They might have found the weapons a bit intimidating, though. Doug |

Excellent work as always, love the flowers on the base! Gives it that finishing touch. (-: |

The flowers were a nice touch! Great paint job! |

Anne, you might try highlighting brown leather with a mix of the brown with yellow. |

Annie got her guns! Looking good. And yes, nice flowers. Regards, Rob. |

Very nice work, especially the duster and the base. |

Nice work Anne, well done! Thank you Lee! Both the fig and the pic are very nice! I can see the resemblance despite, um, the sweater
;o) I didn't quite fill that out the way my figure does hers:) They might have found the weapons a bit intimidating, though. They found my temper fairly intimidating though:) Excellent work as always, love the flowers on the base! I got those from Scenic Express and I like the a lot. Circa 1970s, correct? Most definitely. Wow – the resemblance is uncanny All of us girls resembled our figure and I do like weapons:) The flowers were a nice touch! I've just now started working on improving the basing. Thank you for noticing. Anne, you might try highlighting brown leather with a mix of the brown with yellow. Thank you Phil. I've got my Knuckleduster to do yet and that will come in handy later. Annie got her guns! Looking good. And yes, nice flowers. Thank you Rob. Tomorrow I begin pitting these girls against serious work. I've got a fiver that says these girls will lose:) Very nice work, especially the duster and the base. Now that I've begun actually putting effort into the bases, I'm enjoying that part of the process. |

Can I guess (but don't really want to know) you're not packing a double barrel sawed off. Fantastic job, always wanted to do one of me, and sort have started but haven't finished it. |

Really nice job. And she does resemble you. |
Tom Bryant | 15 May 2013 11:03 a.m. PST |
Very nice work Miss Annie! She's a spitting image of you. Well done ma'am. |

This is my favorite of the series. Not just because it is "Annie" but because of the great action pose. OK, and I am a sucker for a double barreled shotgun! |

Great work, thanks for sharing! Allen |
