    Nativity scene Rocco, To see this work from the 6th century is truly awesome! The painting and sculpting is truly spectacular ..... and they did not have stuff like duro and sculptey whose merits we're perpetually debating:) Diego, You are right. I just looked at the Thunderbolt Mountain...

    PiLiPiLi Miniatures. December release

    Awesome work Quang. Not just the sculpting, look but also the painting. Is this painted in oils? I'm especially taken by the leather helmet and the choice of colours that blend together extremely well. Cheers Basil

    Poses & figure form

    hi guys, I've noticed a lot of the newer figures have pretty idealised poses and body build. Lots of muscles, abs, very grand looking etc. Trim and lean is fine by me but I do feel some of these are exaggerated even though you need to exaggerate a little for smaller scales. You don't see such...

    New Technology in Figure Sculpting

    That's pretty impressive. But I must admit I'm suprised it hasn't been done sooner. The technology's been there and toy makers have been using such techniques to copy toys. Now what would be REALLY impressive is if they could reproduce the skin texture on a bust like Roy Hunt's latest! One...

    Warriors - SAS bust 200mm

    SAS bust Hi Jay, Rob, Thanks for your comments. One thing I tried to do was a sunburnt looked. The skins normally a little reddish when you first get a sunburn but after extended exposure, it just gets a darker shade of brown. Rob - I think the lighting for the photos was not very good...

    Warriors - SAS bust 200mm

    Hi everyone, Here's some pics of a bust painted in oils that I completed sometime back. Would like your comments what could have been done better. I do find it more difficult getting straight lines and finishing touches with oils compared to acylics. But for figures that are 90mm or...

    Books on heraldry / emblems

    Hi, I am looking for a book with lots of illustration of heraldry or emblems that knights could wear. I have the Osprey book on Heraldry and some others of their books. Unfortunately, there are not very many pictures of shields / emblems, and where they would which knight would have worn...
