Pegaso 75mm

[Bryan]

Merry Christmas everyone
Been busy with a Pegaso 75mm Knight of the Middle Ages
Have to say very disappointed with the casting massive gaps to fill which I don’t mind.But over all poor casting.
Is there anyone who does this era in resin.

Perhaps have a look at Tartar Miniatures.

 

[Bryan]

Thanks I’ll have a look

Hi Bryan

Sorry to hear the issues , I would definitely contact Pegaso with the concerns ....their moulds must be worn ?

Thanks I might if I didn’t know it was a Pegaso figure for sure.I would I have thought it was a cheap copy.

Pegaso has a great service. But if it is a recast, you shouldn't complain here that Pegaso isn't as good as you aspect.
I never had a disapointment figure from Pegaso. Casting is great, also the resin figures..
But a Middle Age knight in 75 mm is in my opinion always a metal....not a resin.

We here at PF hate recasters. So if you buy a recast, don't complain.....its your own choice if you bought it.
But don't throw to Pegaso.

Just to let you know I paid £35 for a Pegaso miniature from Pegaso retailer.My comment was that if I had paid for a copy then I can’t moan.But paying full price I feel I have the right to complain.

I read it the otherway. Sorry.
Never had a issue with fitting of Pegaso. There is always more cleaning then with a resin, and there are indeed some gaps. I think it is normal when using the molds alot of time.

No problem only ever used Resin and this was my first metal figure.Just thought the casting was a bit hit and miss

I think gap filling is a reality of metal figure modeling. I’ve probably bought a dozen or more from Pegaso’s classics range and they have all been of excellent quality with some gap filling needed. As long as I don’t need to try to resculpt anything I’m satisfied. Also I bought a couple Russian resins that needed filling too.

Also missing the spurs

 

[megroot]

some fine wire with a very small ball of puty will fix that problem
Most at the time i find, the spurs are gone into the carpet monster.

If you would like to buy excellent Middle Age knights in 75 mm, please have a look at Mercury models. The resin castings from them are just perfect.
