Don Quixote de la Mancha

[Viking Bob]

A very nice bust and this will be very popular, what about his sidekick Sancho Panza?

Gary

no excuses, for not painting him. I'm sure he's going to be a good seller.
I get the feeling he'll be ending up on my bench.


Malc

Thanks Malc, usually with armour I cheat and just polish the white metal but with this being in resin, I will have to take some instruction.
I'll let you know when he's ready.
Best wishes, Gary.

Thanks Brian.

Thanks Bob, Sancho Panza is definitely in my thinking, but before I get on to sidekicks, I want to tackle some of the other Princpals.
Best wishes, Gary.

Its been a fortnight and I still have not applied even the base colour yet. I must be slipping. I told you at the Aannuals what I thought, keep 'em coming gary

 

[garyhiggins]

Thanks Tom, I'm glad you're happy with him. Actually, I haven't done any painting on anything in over a year, every time I even look at my paint box it gets a severe case of the DT's and cringes away into the corner. Luckily, the Magic Sculpt will still let me play with it.
Best wishes, Gary.
P. S. Terry O'Neil has not only started his, he's finished it and done a nice job....... in acrylics

I've only just tuned in to this thread, Gary.....don't know how I missed it--age,I guess. To add to what has already been said in justifiably fulsome praise of dear old Don Quixote;- Cervantes would be proud,and I wouldn't mind betting that he guided your modelling.

Alan

 

[garyhiggins]

Thank you Alan, I thoroughly enjoyed sculpting him. I had forgotten how much I like sculpting in a larger scale and I am really looking forward to getting another one on the go.
Best wishes, Gary.

Thanks Richie, boy the chimp can come up with great words! I have no objection to 1879, but I'm not sure I can get to Mr. Benn's changing room because I'm waiting for the Thunderbirds to get me the HELL out of Hector's House?
Best wishes, Gary.

Hi Aris, glad you like him, I am putting him out myself and am at the moment waiting for casts.
Best wishes, Gary.
