Sowar, Guides Cavalry, Afghanistan. 1897

Ok.... most of you're asking if I ever sleep... and the reply is not! hahahaha.

So, here is one of my last box art paintwork to Stormtroopers and my favourite. An amazing sculpt work by Antonio Meseguer. A relly pleasure to paint and really recommended.

You could see it in flesh the next weekend at Euro and if you're interested, it's for sale. So contact me if you're interested in.

As usual, feel free to ask and comment. I'll try to help to all of you

Hi Alex,
A great sculpt no wonder you recommend it, I would like to see that one as a full figure. Outstanding brush work again, those parallel lines on the turban are amazing. Bravo.
cheers

I really like this one.
It hasn't have the coalminers look.

Oh no, that's another one I might have to buy I might just be coming back from Euro with more figures than I take.

Great sculpt and paint.

Many thanks mates! I'm happy that it likes to you. I think that Meseguer did a great sculpting work!

@tiberius57: The beard is easy to paint. Just need to use a dark color (almost black) and use colors like light brown or sunny skintone (mixed with the base color) to paint the lights Hope it helps

Awesome and all other manner of superlatives.

Hi Alex,

What scale is this bust? Reading the thread it appears it will be avaible from Stormtroopers, is this correct?

Ciao Franco
