For Sale Numerous figures and busts

[brian]

Hi All
It had to come ,but after 40+years ive been painting figures /busts ,i'm giving up painting at the grand old age of 77.I have a large collection of primed,partially painted and painted stuff i'm selling cheap.
Theyre all without a base as ,as since covid etc,i havent entered any into a competition.I think Euro Militaire was the start of my interest waining.I still kept painting up to a month ago,then i lost total interest in my beloved hobby.I kept buying figures /busts but never finishing them.
I'm not selling them for the money's sake but would like them to go to anyone who will appreciate them for little cost.
I havent posted any pictures yet as i thought i would wait to see if there,s any interested.

Brian, well that wasn’t good to hear that you’re giving it up. Always been a pleasure to see your work over the years. Understand your reasons though. Will you be down at S&L next month mate?

 

[DaddyO]

Certainly be interested to know what you're looking to pass on Brian. Got a few things that I'd like to have a go at . . .

Cheers
Paul

Sad to see you stopped painting. Learned alot from you, because as me you painting with oils.
I really wanted to see what you have to sell.

FFS Brian....I'm just coming to terms with turning 70 and have been using you as a continuity benchmark.
You've surely got a few good years yet. What will you do to fill your creative urges.....
We need to get a session organised between us all in the Pot Still soon.
As for interest, that's a cast iron certainty

Come on Brian, take a rest and then get back to what you love doing and are amazingly good at. As you know we are the same age and like you I find motivation wavers from time to time but in those times when I get down to painting (less prequently these days) I find it a wonderful relaxation.

See you at Sword and Lance in a few weeks mate.

I’m very sorry to hear this news Brian,that must have been a tough decision to make,I myself sometimes find it hard to get motivated,I thought once I’d retired it would be non stop painting,but it hasn’t worked out that way for me,I’m thinning my collection down now of painted pieces I’ve done in the last 25 years and they grey army has to starting moving away as well,I’ll be putting my own grey army stuff on here shortly,I hope you’re keeping well mate,I do miss Folkestone and the banter we used to have,take care Bri

Brian,
you stopping doing what gave you so much pleasure is sad to hear.

Are the figures posted the only ones you have to part?

Hi Brian
I;m only selling the ones that never got a base,then i completely switched off for no reason other than i wasn;t enjoying it as much as i used to.I'll keep going to the shows though,and i've been dabbling in small scale tanks just for fun.Here's a bust i forgot to include.
