Thanks guys! I do like taking Christmas themed photos...Action Man is always associated with Christmas and birthdays for me, and I always get nostalgic at this time of year!

I do like the way you've managed to make those eagle-eyes look appropriate to the theme of your pic! They usually look more than a little weird to me!
Thanks, it took quite a bit of work, but I'm happy with the result!
For the shots where the boys are actively smoking, how do you put the ciggies in their mouth? Computer trickery?

No, the ciggies are tiny pieces of spaghetti painted white, with a grey end. I filed the filter end to a point and then wet it, and held it against the corner of their mouths. The spaghetti sticks there if you wet it enough to get it slightly sticky and then hold it still for a minute.

Not really sure about any smile. I look at him and decide he's not, then I look again and it seems he is. Perhaps "enigmatic" is the word? Either that or you could just call him "Mona"?

Enlightenment comes from within...just like a fart.

...or a parachute?
Excellent perspective and arrangement of the coat.

Being new to the forum, joined last summer, I haven't had a chance to see all of the threads. I spent tonight reading all 23 pages of this one. I really enjoyed the comic stories of the rebuilding on your VAM team, and the photos you have posted.
Great work Blackbrazen! Incredible photos!
