A drop too much

[Nap]

Hi ,
This is a very old figure from Phoenix (must be at least 20 years old , sculpted by Tim Richards) , loved the pose , reworked the chair and stool , he's falling asleep with the wine glass about to fall !!!! love the stomach and the peeping toe , the basework is made from magisculpt representing marble with a carpet ...not my normal scale ..but I enjoyed this one ..might even do a few more from Phoenix that I have in my grey army (Chess players/Georgian soldier with baby)

Very nive Nap, not seen this one around for years, like the way you have set the scene and the painting is also good, its good to pull some of the old ones out now and again, I got draws full of them.
Cheers

Virgilius,
You are right it is a shame they don't make these , all classics that make interesting subjects as well (sometimes appear on e bay)
