Completed Critique Minuteman 1775 75mm

[Aveleira]

Hi there!

Here it is the complete work on this beautiful figure!!
I loved working on it... probably one of the figures that I most
liked to work on... and I'm very proud of the final result, specially
because I've gone to a color scheme a little unusual for what we are used
to see in this subject and, of course, the terrain, that despite started being
close to the art box grew to something else. I feared that the colors didn't
matched the terrain, but after all like it very much.
The Base is homemade, with the name plate that comes with the figure, which is very very
nice!! If more figures had this it would be great!!!
All in acrylics as usual, Andrea and Vallejo.
I think I have said more than enough, so now I show the pics which I hope are
good enough:





Hope you like it
Best Regards
Pedro

HI Pedro,

I just love this figure which I think will become a classic-it has everything, Poise, Elegance and I couldn't wait to get one into the grey army. Really like your work on this and it was a brave move to ignore the box art and go your own route. Just one point have you scuffed the paint near the bottom of his coat on his right hand side?

Hi Pedro,
WOW, I just love what you have done with this, I've never seen the box art, but this would do the box art more than justice. Very nice finish my congratulations to you.
cheers

Pedro,
This is a fantastic piece of work you've done here. I love the colours you've chosen, especially the coat... very rich and deep. The groundwork is awesome, the trees couldn't look more real.
IMO, this is your best work so far.

Bravo

Colin

Thank you all for your kind comments, of course I'm very glad you liked it.
To those who want one of these fellas I strongly recommend you to hurry up
getting one, they are numbered... It's a great figure indeed and very big.

Keith, I saw the scuff when I was posting the pics...already removed it

Colin, I'm really happy about this figure, and I might agree with you


Best Regards
