HG in Sicily 1943

[1969]

Exellent result Diego and a very nice pose you have created with this figure, what scale proportion chart are you working to, is it 7 1/2 heads ?

Looking forward to seeing how you paint this one up.

Thanks Mike!
Steve, yes. My goal is represent a real person in uniform, so I tend to avoid "heroic" proportions.
In fact I´m now thinking to sculpt a fatty napoleonic...

Diego, superb finish and I'm looking forward to seeing him painted. Not I must admit as much as seeing you start the fat napoleonic.

Cheers Ken

Hi, Diego!

Are you sure it's not a real person over there?

You did a fabulous face painting, a and the tropical trousers are superb, I really like the transitions between lights and shadows! Hope to see it finished soon!

Cheers,

Nemanja
