a simple figure?

[Nap]

Hi there ,

I would suggest you go for a verlinden they are not too big IMO ,a good size to get your skills together on, they are 200 mm.....

Youngs/ Nuts etc are superb busts in quality but also a lot more to purchase so why not go for the Verlinden like I suggested , easy to prep etc ....

then when you are happier you could try a more complicated piece from another manufacturer or go for a smaller scale like 1/12 th

Another good supplier is Rob Lane who runs Elan13

as a student of painting I found out how he did it but I still trying figure out what colors that are acrylic that I can use that similar to his colors that if it is possible also how difficult is the Carl Reid's bust to do as well ?

well I got two busts both historical - one Tang Dynasty-Guard Officer , and "Man in Gorget and Cap" as well as finding in the apartment two more but they are fantasy from Olde World Miniatures and they are The Wolfman and hag of Grayhaven bust I hope these four are simple to do yes or no ?

I think you will find the Tang Dynasty bust a challenge, the Man In Gorget, not so much.

For relatively inexpensive 120mm figures try Victory Miniatures. Some are simple, some less so.
