Completed Mr. Pickwick

120mm figure sculpted by fellow Planeteer Gary Higgins. Probably best described as ronde bosse but I'm sure Gary will put us right with the correct description.

That is pretty darn good, the book texture background sets the figure off perfectly. Gary will love this!

Excellent work Roger,
The French call it indeed a ronde Bosse, i like the titel semi-flat more. But what is in a word. The painting is great as is the sculpt.

Rich, Marc, thank you both very much.

Interesting figure. The colour choices and execution are great.
The fig shows exactly why I won't wear a waistcoat and breeches... not a good look when your belly protrudes between the two :-(

Well done Roger

Colin

I know what you mean mate, it's been heavy going on the cake front in this household over the past week.

Great job Roger, you've certainly done the figure justice. Rich is bang on the nail about the background.
Best wishes and Happy New Year, Gary.

PS the definition of them I liked best was by American modeller Mike Hall when he called them "Roadkill Rounds"

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks very much Gary. I'm really pleased you like him.
Roadkill Round it is then.

Ok, Roger. Looks very good and I will make my photos from my two semi-flats or semi-round-flats or whatever tomorrow

 

[billyturnip]

Cheers Ulrich, I'm looking forward to seeing yours.

Great painting. Great brushwork. Good choice of background for a literary character.
