One comment, which I meant to make when you used to have a pic of you as an avatar,  as it showed this well.

Eye whites are not really visible unless you are really close to a person,  I read in one figure painting guide to not bother, and just use the flesh tone.  

Your avatar pic was about the same size as the faces above, and in it you could not see your eye white at all. 

 

interesting and something id not really considered as ive aways painted the whites (even on 28mm wargaming figures) but now you say it .......................................

i may need a rethink

One of your figures reminds me strongly of George Raft (here shown with whites of eyes visible):

 

Superb painting.

The eye thing is a question of style, I think. Think of them as panel lines

Oh, I love it. Fantastic work!

Fantastic! Great figure painting, and a wonderful vignette. The men look rather old to me, kind of home guard... 😀

That’s a wonderful result from this kit Dean. The fugues and base are very well represented and the excellent photography really highlights your great modelling skills. 
Cheers and thanks for taking part.. Dave

Very nice indeed. The base sets things off perfectly.
