I hope that you are fine and staying healthy. Here is an in progress photo of a 65mm figure to be released by Elan 13 later on this year. Sculpted by yours truly
Have a great day keep safe.

Haha! Sorry for the three images!!! My first photo upload! .
Anyway, I hope you like the figure. It can, of course, be painted as pretty much any drummer from the early and mid 17th century European history. ECW, 30-years war, etc.
All the best!

That's one of the best faces I've seen in a long time. The manner in which the body shape is adapted to carry the drum is superb as well. A triumph.

Thanks my friend! I really love to focus on the character, the pose and also the simplicity.

Well done, Mike, another little beauty. I'm really enjoying doing 16th/17th C figures at the moment, a period I have not explored much until now. Done most of your sculpts, though

Why do Mike Blank’s figure always look like moving people?
“First principles, Clarice. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing, ask what is it in itself? What is its nature? What does he do, this man you seek?”

 

[Mike the Swede]

Thanks! And I am too a huge fan of "The silence of the lambs"
Simplicity indeed my friend.
