Preview: French Cuirassier with the stolen flag of the 69th

Another superb job, not sure I can do a "Taken English Colour" but I will be strong!

Another beauty, Carl. That's just just gorgeous!

The only problem is that I can't keep up with you!

Merry Christmas,
Kurt

If this was in 1/3 scale and in bronze, it would be in a museum. Once again Carl, you're blurring the line between hobby and fine art. I can't see how I avoid buying this one.

I agree it sometimes seems a shame and is scary for me to put it in the mould, I am very precious with other people's sculpts, the master to me is like touching an original canvas,as you say it is art and something I haven't got over yet. But if it means it is shared,and Carl wants them to be, then it is worth doing I hope and try to bring every part of the master to the finished piece so it looks as good. But I cannot thank the customers/friends enough for helping support the range.
Merry Christmas and I hope it gives a taste of Cgs for 2015

I think this is the best of the bunch (i.e. Waterloo series)--really something. Am a bit intimidated with the prospect of trying to paint the flag, but still just a beautiful figure.

I have to say ... when one thinks everything is done ... some magic wand raises the bar to a brand new standard!

This bust is going to become a best seller! Cracking year - starting in January with the Life Miniatures RAF pilot ... and now ending with this marvel!

The day it's out ... the day I'll add it to the cart Graham. No one in this planet can pass without this figure!

If possible, you exceeded yourself Carl!!! Possible ... heck! This bust is touching the impossible! How did you made it!

Carl.

Absolutely fantastic work, a superb bust in all respects! The motion and feel to it is fantastic.

However, if you think that I would even attempt this 'Flag', or the rest of it. You may as well get on 'Yer-Bike', and pick me up a 'Hovis', loaf of bread, en-route.

This is way beyond my skill, but its still a gorgeous piece.

High Regards,

Mark

Carl and Gra
Very best wishes to you two Guys too.
I hope that you workaholics can manage to tear yourselves away from the day (and night) jobs to recharge your batteries and have a few bevvies.
I am sure that 2015 will be a roaring success for you both.
Cheers,
Keith
