Minuteman

[akaryu]

The recent sale of a double kit from my grey army prompted me to finally finish this figure which almost finished lingered on my workbench, so before our annual pilgrimage to the Càdiz region, here is my version of the Minuteman sculpted by Maurizio Bruno in 75mm. Please enjoy and don't spare your critic!
Cheers,
Pierre

Excellent work! Really like your attention to detail and color. You really pulled of a well painted frock coat, leggings and stockings! Very crisp detail! I bet it is even better to view in person...

Thanks for the comments guys. The figure was a real joy to paint, being a crisp flawless cast and an elegant sculpture by Maurizio Bruno. Only 200 figures were cast, otherwise it would have shown up in a lot more shows. My second copy is now in the very talented hands of planeteer Marco22 and that will be something to look out for!

cheers,
Pierre

Nice work. I admit that I prefer more contrasting shading but this looks very good and realistically. Well done.

Cheers Borek

Excellent paintwork on a great looking figure. I've been trying to find this piece but no luck yet. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Wayne, it was limited to 200 numbered figures, edited by an Italian club and indeed hard to find. You can try http://shop.bestsoldiershop.com/ by Marco Ganghini, he might be able to find you one.

Cheers,
