French painter !

[yogi]

Hello everyone,

i create this post to introduce myself, hoping that this thread is in the right section

As you can see in my profil i'm a french guy, not so new in this hobby. I spent a lot of time painting figures between 12 and 18, and there was a big break into it until now ! Studies, girls, cars ... and so on made me loose interest for it.

But a few weeks ago, i started watching again pictures of nice figures on the Internet, and the virus came back very quickly !!

I started with 1/35 realistic figures (Dragon, Tamiya) painted with Humbrol enamels. Next i continued with CITADEL figures and paints which were a big progress. I bought them only for painting (never done any battles!), and near the end i painted 3 realistic figures. A GIGN soldier (resin 1/35), a Vietnam bazooka soldier (resin 1/35) and a couple of 101st airborne D-Day GI's (resine 1/35).

So i decided to buy some paints and 2 cheap figures to paint, and see if it's like the bike ...

I have no pictures of the old figures i realized, and will try to take some in a few days to show you what my (bad!) skill was ! I've spent some time looking to some of the figures here, and some of you have a very very good skill in both painting and sculpting.

Sorry if my english is not good enough to read, but i'm doing my best !!

Thank's

Yogi

Almost all of my "old" paintings are located in my parents house. But i was very surprised that i have one of them in my appartment.

It is the 1/35 resine figure of the vietnam war. This GI seems to be ready to pull the triger on some "Charly" target. I only remember that the figure is made from resin, and probably painted with both citadel and vallejo colors.

This one is one of the last i made. I'm proud (it's a big word !!) of the flesh paint, because it was always a hard thing for me to paint.



(don't pay attention on mouth color, it comes from the digital camera flash)





That's the first time a take pictures of a figure. My COOLPIX is an old digital camera and my photo studio is not yet achieved

Waiting for your comments ..
