I saw this model by Phoenix (Kevin) in the alphabet section.
It is not as good as his but I enjoyed the challenge.

The problem is, if you want it to look like a good cricketer it needs to have a little logo in the top left of its shirt saying "cricket australia"

Then and only then will it be a GOOD cricketer

 :D

Looks good Stuart  :D

The pads look great, and that was the hardest part for me to get right, and you are right, the mouth looks better in the second position.

One thing I do notice is the bat looks a bit wonky !!  Maybe instead of fixing it on the base, would it work if you let the blade of the bat follow the line of the handle, and then fixed it to the side of one of the stumps with a bit of double sided tape ????

Maybe stick a small red round on the bat as well, as though he is actually hitting the ball.....just an idea :D

Also Roger has a really nice cricketer he has made.
Kind regards

Thanks for the advice Kevin.
I did add the ball and moved the bat.
I then took it in to my daughters school for them to do what they wished.
It ended up on their Facebook page  :D
