Beautiful location!

Favorite figure so far...

Is this a commercial figure or a one-off?

Thanks for the pictures Maco.
Some outstanding work there, looks a great show to me.
Wondering: How can the jury give a neutral judgement when the name of the painter is with the figures.

Pure gold here - any close-ups?

Marc, thanks for the appreciation.
I think the work of a judge should be impartial. Especially if he knows the competitors ...
Now what are we judging? A number of figures who are present at an exhibition...
we are not in a court ... or we are not deciding on which company to build the buildings of a city...
instead, i think, it is good for those who visit the exhibition to know what is the story about the figures and recognizing who realized them.
Anyway I will report your kind observation to the organizers of the competition . Sorry for my terrible english!

I believe that only one figure is producted, the minuteman on the right of the foto, but it is a limited edition of 200 copies.
