Dear Friends of Planet Figures

From little for time many members of this forum
they have asked to me to realize a SBS of my job.....
unfortunately my time is always much limiting
(are chased from production...... LOL)
therefore I have thought to realize a small SBS
where story little of my constructive process.

One Promise is a Debit

To premise that is not a job step step... like those
of Bravo Gary who has an enormous patience......
and sure I will jump some passages.... you memory
moreover that my English is still much insufficient
one therefore will have also the way makes you 4 :lol:

The Subject is a Oplita that has fought to the Termopili
is in 54 milimeter and this piece will be produced from
Romeo Models will be introduced to september to the
Euromilitaire (Folkestone 2006)
but I not to know with the escape on the market.

Thanks to our Friend Costas Rodopoulos in order to have
marked this subject to me from and in order having
to me supplied the documentation.
Thanks also Stefano Castracane for its historical support.

Good vision to All and naturally is appreciate the comments.



Salute MAB :)

Hi Mauritzo
It is fascinating to see a master at work. You can learn a lot. The only danger is that they can make it look much easer than it really is, thanks for the insight.

Maurizio, MY PIECE OF CAKE!! Due to the fact, that I love your work I always wondered, how the heck he is doing that! I admire the masters of human anatomy (my monsters did not care about that so much, but...) and I hope, some day, I will master this, too!!

Super work!

Maurizio, What an awesome sbs. Thank you for taking the time to put it together. I can't really say anything that has not already been said. Well done my friend.~Gary
 
Well done Maurizio. Not only is it informative, but it's well presented. I always like to see what other sculptors use for tools.
 
Thanks a lot for the very informative SBS Maurizio. You really did great my friend. I can't wait to see the finished and painted figure :) It looks like another amazing release from Romeo.
