I'm sorry Silent Invader. Despite my huge affection for goats and the 18th Century, I was compelled to go for the quite remarkable 1930's film cast of Prof Witchheimer.

Keep up the ruminant painting. It never hurt Gainsborough.

Is it 'done' to vote for oneself?

The excavation is great!  And is that a familiar figure lurking through the archway?

Thanks for your encouragement and, indeed, to those who have voted for my herd!  :D

Well, I have 'done'!   :) But why not?  Do you object?  ???

S.I., Maybe if you had titled your entry scratchbuild goats you would had more "sympathy votes"? ;)

Nice work from both of you anyway 8)

Oh yes, it's done.  :D

I did it! …once ;)
I’m far too afraid to have a zero total vote to do it twice… lol

Thanks!   :D  Though the goats were a lot easier to sculpt than the child - he's only 22mm to top of head and really tested my limited abilities but is still far from perfect (though it's all learning, right?!).   :)
