Is that a WIP :qforce: TTBP I spy there?

Aha, yes, well spotted Baron. It's been 90% complete for ages, but I'm just not happy with it yet, so waiting for a bit of inspiration before you see all of it.

A bit out of release order here, but since Paul had such kind words (and it is rare to see a genuine Q Force fan out there!) here is the champion surfer himself.........

First use of this head sculpt back in the 80s.

In the new Sea Skimmer.

And using his expertise in Rocket Assault to set up the the SAMs on the Q Force Reef.

I don't know how you do it, Jimbo - everything you make looks like it came off the production line.

Superb! Love the use of the Snowcat missiles.

Fantastic!!
Love the repaint of the Devilfish, what colour do you use for the blue?
I see Blowtorch makes a funky :qforce: character too.

I'm putting my money on Satincote Harbour Blue. Jimbo's a B&Q man.

Bloody hell, now I am worried, I think you're both right!

I can't confirm as this stuff was finished over two years ago when I was in the UK. The spray paint for the vehicles was definitely from B&Q and the figures were done with a tin of Humbrol. I brought a tin over with me and it's Gloss 14.
