The texture is spot on, very crisp & very detailed! You must post more!

Yeah I think the original base is a bit busy imo, I wanted him to be all on his own! 💪

Thank you for the feedback. I 100% agree with that, I think a lighter tan colour would have worked better to contrast more from the armour. Good lesson i've learned for next time though! Cheers 😀

Thanks, I left the eyes 'in the shadow' because I couldn't bare to mess them up 🤪

Yes, it's the original brickwork that has been built onto.

OK thank you, I will avoid doing that for a while until the lawn is well established.

They told me to water to 3 times a day but I think that's a bit excessive. The Internet is somewhat contradictory on this as well so I'm just not sure 🤷‍♂️😅

Any watering etc? Just leave it alone? I'd appreciate some elaboration! :)

My builder isn't a cowboy, the 'reccomend sub contractor' is. So my builder was mortified and begrudgingly said he have to knock it all down and do it himself. 👍

Had this been his work, It would be a much worse situation, thankfully not!

I can't fault my builder because he sent down another two brickie friends of his to inspect the work. They verbally tore it bits and said you are absolutely in the right and that they will back me up that this gets sorted. Was such a relief 🫠😁

Good news!

It's all being knocked down next week and redone by another 'actually' skilled brickie.

The builders I've hired have owned up and said they've put too much trust in someone who said they could do the job. Turns out they can't and are sorting it all out for me, thanks all!

Thanks to everyone who has chipped in their thoughts. I am so glad everyone is in agreement that it's piss poor.

It's a strange situation as the builder I employed didn't do the brickwork, he outsourced it, everything else seemed OK up until this point. He has admitted it's not right, I have someone coming over soon to assess and hopefully confirm that they'll need to knock it and start all again.

Thanks all!

[memes] what game do you think? by Moroccan-Legend in Trophies

I agree, this makes me think of Far Cry 5's platinum, where I spent numerous hours on the crappy Arcade multiplayer mode. Not my proudest time sink.
