Op zijn Nederlands... Môgge...
Welcome... this is a good site, and one of the better ones around... You learn a lot by just reading, and looking at the pics of some of the models... Some of these look unbelievable realistic... others are well build but a bit unusual (be aware of twisted !! :-) ).
So happy modelling....

Hi Ya Baldy
Welcome aboard. This place is the spot to get the face painting info you need. I just asked questions about this myself in the figures area. It is under painting faces with brushes. It has helped me.
Cheers

Hey there. Your story sounds like it follows the common thread. Lots of us started as kids/teens, had life catch up to us, and then started again in our 30s or 40s.

Welcome Baldy. This is a great site. I'm an old cogger and I don't mind telling you that I have learned a lot from the younger members. You won't find a better group of people anywhere else. If you can't find the answers here I guess there isn't one. Be prepared to share your techniques with us.

The guys are right, you think you know something and find out you learn more than you teach. I know my level has improved and one of my areas was in figure painting. Still miles behind some of these guys but at least I am advancing. I'm sure you'll enjoy your time spent with us
