I have this one, but I'm in US. If no one else in a more convenient location has this, and if you know anyone heading to a show out this way (MMSI or MFCA once they start again) perhaps they could bring it back for you as I'm usually in attendance.

I was only able to take a few pictures as I finished just in time to get packing for the trip to deliver it. I forgot to take one of the back, sorry. Though I enjoyed painting so much, I plan to get another of the same kit and paint it again. :D

So I finished this as a gift for a friend. The casting was lovely and the kit was really fun to paint.

Heh, I did find it! If you want to wait to see if anyone in Canada has one, I don't mind. But I do have one in case you'd like it.

I have to double check, but I think I have this figure.

Hey all, what's the best brand in acrylics for a white that doesn't get that chalky kind of texture when mixed with other colors?

So hopefully the club isn't out any funds on the cancellation then?

I am looking to sell this bust. There are more pics in my vbench (https://www.planetfigure.com/threads/tartar-miniatures-bust-conversion.130334/) post on this project including more details on the sculpting done (added the dress, added detail of the head wrap). I'd really rather not mail...

I forgot to post a finished pic. Here's a pic from MFCA.

Thanks guys. Here's an update on the progress. I've been sketching out volumes and trying to get a good shiny effect on the head wrap and hair. The hair has to be blonde and the head wrap has to be a rich yellow, so I want to make sure there is contrast between the two. I'll go back later to...

My latest project is a slight conversion of Tartar Miniatures "The Fox" bust. I thought it would be fun to add a flapper dress on her. The fox stole is part of the kit, but I added the dress and embellished the head wrap a little. She is supposed to have a cigarette holder in her fingers but...

I plan to do a scene from Warhorse (the book; I haven't seen the movie). Someone familiar with the story can probably figure out what scene I have in mind. Is the movie generally accurate with regards to uniforms? I can catch parts of it on youtube.

Thanks Nap! Looking at the Tommy's War site, do they have all the Tommy's War figures in their shop? It seems there a lot of early war, but not late war stuff.

Hi Kultan, That's a solid paint job. To pick out the best thing you've done on the little guy, you've nailed the metals and rust very nicely. Just a couple things...there's a spot on the chain on his left shoulder where the flesh color has run onto the chain (the underside of the chain) and...

Hi all, I'm going to be starting a WWI project and I need some help finding figures that will work for the scene I have in mind. I need a late war German - older soldier with a peakless cap and a late war Brit (Welshman to be specific) in an overcoat (with helmet askew if possible). Both I...
