I read his plight this morning on FB. But does it surprise us? A well known problem that does seem to get bigger every year. The figure business seems to be more prone to it then say the plastic aircraft industry. I can imagine that it's (technically) easier to copy a bust then to copy a 600...

Impressive Edward and an interesting subject too

PM sent for Elisena Gök - turkish cavalry man 54mm

Inspiring Edward(y)

Thanks Marc. Caucasian? A bit on the dark side? Your formula looks complicated. I'll give it a try. When mixing skin tone I just put some white, yellow ochre, cadmium red/Venetian red, dark umber and Van Dyke brown out and mix it into a base colour. To that mix I add more white for the...

Hello all, Any advise for a colour mix for a Hun? Oils or acryl it doesn't matter. Cheers Paul

Looks great Bob(y) What I like very much too is him balancing on a falling tree. An idea I have been toying with. Inspiring! Paul

Interesting. While your at it: why not treat yourself to Georg Solti's 1970 DECCA recording of Tannhaüser with Rene Kollo, Christa Ludwig, Hans Sotin and Helga Dernesch in the lead roles? A glorious performance. Cheers

Love it Mike. (y) Full of realism. My first thought was: he must be wearing a woollen jacket. Love the face too. Everything you did together gives him a cocky look that an Italian ace should have! Cheers Paul

Very nice Ben! I love the colour combination: white, greys and then the gold - yellow sash(y) Cheers Paul

No reply from Fabrimore. Still looking for it!

Impressive!(y)

Thanks Roger! Did you order from them? I sent them a message asking if the ship to the Netherlands and Papal etc.. Cheers PAul

Yes. Indeed they did.

Hello all, I am looking for this 54 mm Soldiers figure of a Roman Officer (Centurion)of Second Class Levy, 6th century BC. Does someone have this one in his grey army and is het willing to part with it? Thanks Paul

Try to start by painting the blue bands with diluted/transparant paint. And then if have positioned them fill the stripes so as to build up the colour. Like John says it doesn't matter that it looks like they put a stripe across their face. Because this is exactly what they did. It should...

Interesting subject. Great effort(y) But let's assume you had a good look at this figure and would compare it to any Pegaso figure (they seem to set some sort of standard) what would your conclusion be? Cheers Paul

Thanks Luciano. Printer's ink. Gold & silver (El Greco Miniatures sells them). Mixed with black or dark brown oilpaint to get the desired colour or shade. Advantage: you can shade, highlight and blend as with normal oilpaints. I feel it gives me maximum control over the process. I also add...

Love your Prussian flats Roger(y) But.... eh when do can finally after all those long years we admire Gustav Adolphs funeral procession? ;)

Donated? To who or what?
