Title: Is there Life on Mars?
Post by: CyberAlien312 on July 15, 2013, 01:29:24 PM

These are two of the Crooked Dice Police Detectives, both miniatures are great figures.
The not-Sam Tyler was painted some time ago, and the not-Gene Hunt today. I'm quite pleased with how Gene turned out, but now I see Sam in comparison to Gene I have mixed feelings about Sam.
Here are the pictures:

I pretty much liked Life on Mars. It reminded me on my childhood.

I think they're both very good. What, exactly, are you concerned about?

oh, the TV series.
well the PJs are very good, but since I did not recognize them, a fail I guess  ;)

I think they look pretty darn good. The only problem I see is you gave Gene black shoes. He always wears white loafers in the show. I only know this because I've seen the series so often. My wife has a thing for Sam Tyler.

Nice work.
However Michka is correct. Gene Hunt should be in white loafers (or snake skin boots for Ashes to Ashes).
