Ciao Sonia, I got this chap in my grey army and your version has inspired me. Well done on an outstanding cloak. This is difficult to do but you have executed it perfectly. Keep posting your work Ciao Franco

Hi Guy, Sorry for the long silence - the end result of this bust is outstanding. Well done skin tone, clothing and overall presentation excellent. Ciao Franco

Hi Tony Thank you for starting this important thread. It is tragic and maddness that some of the fires were deliberately started. But good that one of the suspects was arrested. I lived in rural Victoria (Gippsland and surroundings) for one year when I first emigrated to Australia and made...

Hi Robert Awesome and outstanding. Well done. I think with Soldiers latest release by Mr. Laruccia you will be back painting 54mm :) Ciao Franco

http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/de-charles I just saw on eBay a 1/10th scale Poste Militaire bust of the Mandan JL/4 - chap wearing top hat and smoking a cigar. Starting bid is 79.95 (US $). It is listed as new in box. As an additional note I have previously bought two kits from this seller...

Thanks for the info Matthew. I will start searching today. Ciao for now Franco

I am busy doing two British subjects in 54mm - late 1800s Sudan and Egypt. I would like to add extra details to the figures such as foreign service helmet (plinth type helmet), extra watrebottles (Oliver pattern wooden water bottles) & Martini Henry rifles. Does anybody know whether any...

Hi Tommi, Hope you are now feeling better - the two figures and groundwork are looking superb - keep us posted. I really like the ruined pillars and good to hear that Soldiers Models have improved their castings. They do produce some interesting Romans. Ciao Franco

Hi Guy, Well done on the painting of the horse. Also thanks for sharing the 'choice of bases' photos - very useful and informative. Looking forward to it all coming together. Ciao my friend Franco

Happy new year to all. Hope 2009 is a peaceful one - with much painting. Ciao Franco

Caro Costas, Bravo my friend - outstanding figure and well rendered. I really like the setting you have placed the figure in. Well done and auguri Franco

I like the Punisher - also well painted box art. Well done and time that somebody did the Marvel Universe. Ciao Franco

Hi Dave, Thanks for the feedback on the casting. Will ghet this one in the new year. By the way - the final work on your bust is outstanding. Well done. Ciao Franco

Outstanding work Dave. I like the way the bust is already looking. When this bust was released, I was eyeing it out (and still am). Two quick questions: 1. What was the casting like on your bust? 2. Can the turban be painted in other colour schemes? (I am no expert in this period and...

Bravo Caro Christos, Bellisimo That is fantastic - well done outstanding paint job on this one. Ciao for now Franco

Hi Pete, I know that Leigh is having computer problems at the moment and am sure he will post once he is on line. I was in regular touch with him whilst in Thailand and all I can say is that Leigh is back safe n sound in Australia but what a blow to him. I am really sad for him to miss...

Well done Dear Guy, Outstanding. I really like the composition and groundwork and like the idea of these two figures been paired up together. Also for me the colour balance between the two figures works really well. I also want to say thank you - you are always open in sharing all your...

Thanks once again Jay for posting the images. I do like that pilot as well. Ciao for now Franco

Hi Jay, Thanks for helping out with the pics. I must agree with you - fanatasy subjects just open a new world of possibilities. I have been following the painting styles of some of the French painters - who paint wargaming figures and the effects they are getting on minis is mind blowing...
