Didn't think that was a typo.  I always ♧ seals when I go past the plushies in the store.

Wasn’t that a Belinda Carlyle/ Go-Gos song? Albert the Seal?

“Doesn’t matter what they say
[something unintelligible]
Hey, hey, hey
Albert the Seal”.

You’ll struggle to convince me otherwise, it’s how I remember it anyway.

Nice work on the minis btw.

Cheers, all  8)

Denim is 'easy' - just add tiny amounts of Vallejo Stone Grey to any old medium blue. And keep layering up by adding it until the mix is almost neat Stone Grey. Just try to keep the seams the neat base colour.

Lovely work on those SEALs.  They def look the part.

But we must exercise caution here - given the nature of a few of the posts, PETA and/or the ASPCA will flag this thread....Presumably, no seals were harmed in the making of those figures... 8)

Well, in terms of painting, it gets my royal seal of approval, FWIW. ;)

They are very nice (both model and your paint job), they look suitably serious. I am really tempted by Nam skirmishes.

 I met a seal once (pinniped not BTF) when out bodyboarding in big, interesting surf in South Wales. Nice chap, no understanding of personal space but charming.

They are also fascinated by yellow fins.

Nice painting by the way, and thanks for the denim method.
