Can't wait to see more of it.

Hi

A question is this one of the new resin castings from Debra Raymond or a metal casting from David Grieve himself

Robin

 

[LCoote]

Wow, stunning work Jose! I just love it, more pictures please

It's beautiful Jose ! Your sharp, precise painting style does justice to this beautiful figure, and I like the muted colours ... can't wait to see you tackle the kilt - Cameron of Erracht, not an easy one :lol: . And indeed your fleshtones are very good !

I'm glad that this figure, and the 5 others from the DF Grieve "Waterloo" series are still available ... they truly are among the great classic figures, on the same level as Poste Militaire etc., and Debra does a good job having them cast in resin. My personal favourite is still the infantryman of the 28th foot, loading his Brown Bess musket - one of David's best sculptures.

 

[jose hernandez]

Johan;have you some pictures of those figures?Here in Spain is difficult to obtain the Debra Raymond`s kits.This one was send to me from "De Tara";a firm managed by the charming Daphne,I hope that they have the full range.Jose.

 

[Johan]

Jose, order them directly from Debra :

http://www.militaryfigures.co.uk/

Why don't you send her an e-mail for more info, I'm sure she will personally reply to all your questions re. the DF Grieve figures : [email protected]

Here's an image of the infantryman of the light company, 1st batallion, 28th (North Gloucestershire) regt. of foot, painted by Debra, which you can also see on her website.

I must say he is actually stunning, does the sculpt and your skill as a painter such compliments this piece.

I take my hat off to you, may I say it it looks better than Bill Horans in his book.
