Hello friends in planetfigure,
I wish you ALL to have A Very Happy and Prosperous 2014 with a lot of Modelling Hours and More Finished Models!!

So I would like to share with you my new bust that is the second one Fantasy release of the Greek company of Michael Kontraros, Michael Kontraros Collectibles (www.mkontraros.com) that I have in my hands. I must admit is very unique and covers a different theme from what I have seen in the market. So I like it and it is a collectors’ piece that you must have and paint. I am talking about the second release of the company; The Dwarf Dragon Slayer. This is a Dwarf's Dragon Slayer bust holding his great battle-axe. The left side of his face is burned by the Dragon’s breath, but he doesn't care...the Dragon is dead. As I had mentioned in my previous review of the Elf Dragon Prince, also here the concept and the final product is of a high standard! Congratulations Michael and Good Luck with your New Company (this is the 2nd release) and Have Great Sales for 2014! So what we have:

Title: Dwarf Dragon Slayer
Scale: 1/12
Size: 150mm
Pieces: 6
Sculptor: Michael Kontraros
Box Art: Chris Panagiotou
For Orders and more Information: www.mkontraros.com

The kit comes in a metal box. The metal box of the kit is brilliant and keeps very safe the parts of the bust. The sculpting detail is of a high standard! I tried to find the molding lines or something that I must clean. I found NOTHING AT ALL!!! You can go direct for painting!! The casting is so clean and the detail so clear! The highly quality resin will help the painter a lot as the paint will adhere on the surface very good. The Box Art has been painted by the famous and very talented artist Chris Panagiotou. The painting selections are endless! For sure this kit will be very popular among the fantasy fans but also among the others because everyone will want to paint this goody!

I am attaching photos to have a personal evaluation.
I hope that you will find this review useful.
