But they aren't painted Rich {:-{

That'll probably be why I want pre-painted ones Dicky...
-
Whats boat is it, what size, why not paint the ones you've got.
Sorry too many questions all in one go, just take your time.
You did say "pre-painted driver figures like those in the attached image" which weren't actually painted. >>:-(

Whats boat is it....Sarik Offshore race boat.
What size....24"x6"
Why not paint the ones you've got....Because I'd like some that look half decent when installed, my painting skills aren't that good.
Sorry too many questions all in one go, just take your time. Soon enough for you?
You did say "pre-painted driver figures like those in the attached image" which weren't actually painted. Meaning I wanted pre-painted figures like the ones in the attached image.

????? dont understand what you are on about, you say you want "pre painted" figures like in the image which as DickyD rightly says aren't painted
because your painting skills aren't that good.
Sorry I dont know of any driver figures painted or not painted

I'll try once more...I'm after two driver figures like those in the pic, only I want them painted and not clear...now, that wasn't difficult, was it?

But you already have PRE - painted figures Rich. PRE = before = unpainted = CLEAR. Do you mean you want Post = after clear = painted figures.
Hope this CLEARS things up because I have now totally confused myself. :(( Probably everyone else as well. %)

Wrong sort of figures, marvellous though they are...
But... http://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/shopexd.asp?id=29243 (http://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/shopexd.asp?id=29243) will do the job nicely with the addition of an extra arm.
Note...these little fellas are PAINTED! Good job I'm here really, 'ennit?

You can get figures from toy shops, poundshops, dolls house suppliers in 1/.12th and 1/24th.
They're not difficult to make a pattern for, especially when they have helmets on and big life jackets. Then find a vac forming company and sweet talk them into moulding them in two halves, glue 'em together after trimming and paint them. Any pose, any size, anywhere...Martini!!

So you sorted it yourself Rich. Well I hope you and your clear painted, or was that unpainted figures are very happy together.
If we can be of help again let us know and we'll see what we can do. :-))
-
Thank you Dicky, for your informative replies...yes, my painted driver figures will be winging their way here very shortly. My unpainted driver figures have been consigned to other duties...

Have you ordered them with opposite hands waving?? %) O0

Never thought of that....hmm.

How can you see their hands if they are invisible. :o Maybe your eye's are better than mine. :-)) Can anyone else see what I can't. {:-{
Glad you got sorted Rich. Any other problems, just ask. We are all waiting to help. ;)
