"Landsknecht" - Ademola 22 Miniatures Review

[Guy]

Ademola 22
#200-0025
"Landsknecht"
200mm Resin
Sculpted by Yury Serebryakov
Painted by Roman Rux
6 resin parts

Roman Rux of Ademola 22 Miniatures brings us the Landsknecht created and sculpted by Yury Serebryakov in 200mm resin.

Arriving in Ademola 22's large sturdy black box the kit was comprised of 6 resin parts. The torso was sealed in one bag and the smaller parts sealed in another clear plastic bag. Both were wrapped in bubble wrap for protection during shipping.

Above you see the torso cast with the head and hat all as one unit. The various views above will show you the attention to detail the sculptor and the caster has achieved.

Close-ups

Above you see various close-ups of the highly detailed bust. From the top of the hat to the immense detail on his shirt.

The second feather is cast separately and you can see the tremendous detail Yury has achieved along with Roman's casting.

Above is the front and rear of the small bag which attaches to the chest with positioning holes and lugs to insure the proper fit and placement.

Above is each bloused shoulder showing the front and back of each side.

A large solid resin plinth is supplied with the kit.

Conclusion:
An exceptional beauty cast by one of Europe's top casters the bust screams for painting. Minimal seam lines on the shoulders and underneath the hat require light sanding. One of the nicest Landsknecht busts I have seen. Highly recommended.

Guy - great photos of the parts of the kit which show the quality of casting of the Ademola range generally, as well as this kit.

As you said, screaming to be painted.

GEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZ! That's a nice piece! Thanks for the great review once again Guy. This one may have moved to the top of the the "list" for me. I just wish the feathers could have been cast with the casting blocks on the smaller end and not the one that will be most prominent when attached. Small detail.
