just want to put here some amazing works of Mr. Mike Blank, some works of the past, around 2010 after Mike´s information, but for me totally beautiful, even today. Enjoy
If ever, I took myself this pics in Lyon Show - France , that´s why they have different and uncommon angles, but I believe this is the most interresting part, to see other points of view of such a beautiful works.
The facial expressions that Mike sculpts and then paints really bring these figures and scenes to life, not to mention the animation of each figure all coming together to tell the story, truly marvelous modeling.
TERRY
A million thanks for your kind words! I feel very, very honored indeed! It is fun to study your own work from the past (old sins!)
I must tell you guys that I still enjoy sculpting, painting and creating these vignettes and dioramas. I actually enjoy them even more these days as I tend to make less mistakes and love to find new color mixes! It is indeed an ongoing, never ending learning curve.
And I still love it! There are tons of scenes to create, stories to tell
and paint mixes that need to be tried out! And more books to write of course!
That certain gentleman from Sweden who never will slow down!
I have had the privilege of working with Mike for several years. All the above are available from Elan13 Miniatures except the last one which will be available before Christmas.
