    Stephen, having seen this work-in-progress and admiring the effects of your skill and talent, I do not want to become a harbinger of bad news but your horse - only the head, neck and the parts of the shoulder and back visible - suffers from a way too long neck or from a too small head. For a...

    Pegaso August Releases

    Gents "another Roman, another Indian... why not...75mm British Napoleonic Redcoat" I presume this is one of those 'degustibus non disputandum est' opinions I would like to offer mine too - I think this pick of Roman and Mohawk is fine, I just wish less Nazi Germans, more 16-17th century...

    Good gents, nice master, good photos :). And where the 'other' discussion could be found? I am interested in those comments, as usua , the title - Greek Amazon is a funny name though, simply Amazon would do, after all there were never any Greek Amazons in mythology, rather Thracian or...

    Thorsberg Miniatures

    Czolem, they used to say in Texas back in the first half of the 19th century that to find a Comanche without a horse was rather an impossible task :). I think Catlin reported, during his travels accross American continent, that the Comanches were completely nomadic, and did almost everything...

    French Chasseur

    hey Rocco this 'horseman' is awfully deficient in his knees' girth, I guess the knees rubbed off some and then some more while riding :) , on the other hand the legs are horsemen-like bend at knees - A+, but a big butt for a skinny French 'bravo' :) otherwise a tight looking, very attentive...

    imperial guard

    hello, nice piece.. one comment - the bow case and the sword cannot cross in this way. The bow case usually was slung over the sword,. In your position, with strung oriental bow, the bowstring would get in the way. And you cannot put the sword passing through the strung bow, the sword could...

    MY NEW 120MM PROJECT

    hello Qunag, May I offer my guess - first a Seminole - (moist, damp conditions), then Muskogee or Cherokee :) The rifle appears to be a flintlock, so late 18th early 19th century no more than 1840s)... How about some late 17th/early 18th century Plains Apache one of thses days - with a...

    MY NEW 120MM PROJECT

    well, actually in Arizona you have plenty of logs, especially in the areas where Apaches loved to live, i.e. around springs and lakes, before they were kicked out to 'nice'places like San Carlos or those other 'good' places - so log was not a hint to me, but then it is even more intriguing :)

    MY NEW 120MM PROJECT

    Quang, how are you my friend? great subject! I love those westerns with old Charles Bronson. And Chato was one of his best! It would be nice is this figure would became an Apache (eg famous Chircahua medicine man and fighter Goyaale also known as Geronimo) so I am sure your end-result will...

    new M-Model Winged Hussar

    well, not true my firend, not true.. It was my opinion and I still hold it that the Elite version is actually very weak, historically, and pretty much unwinghussar like. While it is correct that the Young's artistry is much higher and his skill is of a different, master, level, than the...
