Pegaso 54mm 1st US Sharpshooter
 
The 75mm figure was from Fusilier along with a charging Confederate, I think called "Rebel Yell" rAY
 
Some great ideas here,
I would love someone to look at scenes and vignettes.
I have a few paintings by J.L.E.Meissonier in mind where the scene just oozes atmosphere wether a single subject or a group.
Here's what I mean, hopefully these suggestions can't be made just as waist up sculpts
Hahaha

OH Roger !
Why I oughta........

Good one, now we'll have the others as ronde bosse please.

( Iwas gonna suggest the Friedland Panorama, but it must have been created by a flats editor already)

I knew you'd drop that bomb Roger. Haha

Those are some beautiful scenes Paul, as figures of course. I love the one of the bar fight starting and comrades of the combatants trying to break it up. You can almost hear the "let me at 'im!!!!" In French of course.

Knife fights in the bar... ahhh youth :rolleyes:

Colin,

I thought such a scenario was standard behaviour, come 'Lunchtime', in Canada,.... Then back to work, and normality but carrying extra wounds and bruising! .. Although this maybe centred around the 'Quebec' regions! However, I could be wrong!:LOL:

Mark
 
I've also got the flat version of this chap,
View attachment 183932
However he is currently residing in the grey army at the moment but this might be the time to call him out of the reserve.
Roger.

In the same vein as python's 4 yorkshire men...
I feel I really ought to try and 'Win' this one Roger. I was trying to find, 30yrs war, not a bust, by ernie messonier and not a flat, well these are already flat out, there's nowhere to put a bust stem and it's the pright period.
I think on points I'm now ahead.
Aye and you show that to the painters of today and they'd never believe it

failing that, I'd still like to see this made as flat or 3D

You're not wrong about the riotous Quebecers. I've spent time working in the wilds of Northern Quebec and did more than a little time partying on St. Catherine's Street in Montreal... things can get silly there... "Drink, Fight and Fornicate". The Holy Trinity. Of course, you try to squeeze a hockey game in there as well.:sneaky:

Of course we in Ontario, while participating in the above activities, try to do so with a modicom of calm civility. Sadly, it doesn't always turn out so well :blackeye:

I've listed my most wanted on another thread, but my preferences are: Stormtroopers bust of a British Hussar Officer, circa 1820; Household cavalry at Tel-el-Kebir, 17th Lancer Zululand 1879, Hadendowah warrior Sudan 1890's, Indian soldier in Mesopotamia 1915.
 
The Samurai pic shows a christian samurai of the mid to late 16th Century. The ruff is adopted from early contact with Europeans. He is what the young samurai considered to be "cool"at the time. A"chick magnet"!
 
It's from the pre-raphaelite british painter Frederick Mielet.
As such, and being of the victorian period the ladie's
hair and dress mirror that fashion not the earlier period required.
That said, I bet if adapted a wee bit it woulld be superb.
Sometimes Just Do it is actually the right thing to do.
I would 'Recreate the painting rather than the ball'
It's all good I reckon.
I look forward to some piccies if you do
Paulk
