Top work, amongst the most difficult things in modelling is the telling of a story in such a small area, Pepes pulled this off with aplomb! Well done mate!

I always love the work of Pepe Gallardo.
That man has to bring out a portfolio of his work.

Pepe, FANTASTIC! You've put together a great scene. What I really like about it is your ability to use figures from two manufacturers and they work. Often the slight difference in scale and sculpting style do not work. Your painting has tied any of the differences these figures might have together.~Gary

Pepe, extremely well done, it is a pleasure to see a well done vignette.

Guy, thanks for posting the pictures.

Cheers
Roc.

Really nice piece of work. Colors and compilation are harmonically blended and the result is a super scene. I like it a lot

Wow! I too could scare at it for hours on end. Just taking in the various shadows and highlights gives me ideas on how to improve my own techniques.

Thanks a lot, friends!!!!
Thanks Guy, as always, for the post.

Theses coments help me to cash fresh air in order to continues working on new projects.

Blind and Gary, that was the idea, tell something. Sometimes using figures of several traders, making some changes, spending time about the combination and the exposition we can get good releases. Now I am going to prepare a new scene.
Maybe, about Medieval Spanish Knights, "Navas de Tolosa 1212" .in Andalucia my country. Some Knights marching until the battlefield against the muslim invasion.

Thanks Marc, Roc and Major I am glad you like the scene.

John and John B, if my work help you to improve ours figures, I will be twice happy. thanks.

All the best.
Pepe.

Hello Pepe!

fantastic scene! It was certainly one of my favourite at Saint-Vincent! Your use of commercial figures to tell your own story is very creative indeed.
I'm glad to see it has left you eager to start another one. It's a lot of fun, isn't it?
Best wishes!

Pepe, I have to echo everyone else's comments. That's a fantastic diorama It also goes to show you what can be done with some figures with very little converting. It's pretty inspiring being as how I have a lot of Napoleonic figures.......hmmmmmmmm

Thanks,
Jim Patrick
