How about the stretcher bearer and the 'Old Contemptible' as 1/9 scale full figures?

Cast your busts in bronze if you must, but you appear to have an eager market for resin models as well!

Best wishes,

Mike

Carl, the most important question of all............!

Have you signed away the copyright?

If not, then the public have voted!

Resin, resin, resin!!!!

Cheers,
Jon.

Hi Carl;
Let me echo what others have said, and BEG you to find a way to do some copies in resin, if for no reason other than I don't know how to get paint to stick properly on bronze. Seriously, I would love to paint each and every one of these. What a collection! Brilliant.

I can only echo what everyone else has said Carl. Stunning works of miniature art. I have never done a bust, but the Tommy would most assuredly be my first if it were cast in resin. Please for all our sakes consider casting them.

I would paint that stretcher bearer in a heart beat!!!!! And I don't even do busts... but would sure start with that one.

RESIN, RESIN, resin please!!

Besides the beautiful sculpting, I think what makes the stretcher bearer so remarkable is his 1,000 yard stare... he has seen it all and is sooo tired of it.

NICE sculpting!!

Thank you all

Hi Folks,

Thank you all once again for the very very kind and generous replies to these pieces.

At this stage there is no plan to cast them in resin, due to the fact it could possible dilute the impact of the bronze product. But as they say never say never!!!

Thank you all once again from a very humbled Carl

That sound you just heard was my heart breaking...

The Bronze and Resin markets are two entirely different markets.

Carl,
I agree with Mrosko, the Bronze and Resin markets are two entirely different markets. You could turn them into full scale figures, and then you wouldn't have to compromise........!

I note that one manufacturer has already offered to cast these for you in resin!

Good luck,

Mike

Carl ,
Trying to type inbetween the sobbing , we all fully understand your reasons , and good luck with the bronze side of it ...perhaps you could post these to show how they look ...but don't forget ..if EVER they are done in Resin , I will have a SB !!!!!

Wonderful sculptures Carl!
My compliments.

Carl,

Please, Please, Please, Make these available in Resin.

At the very least I beg of you to talk to Chris Mrosko (posted above). His Company holds a high standard and can maintain the message of the sculpt. He is one of the founding fathers of resin figures.

It is a hard and emotional descision to make. Keep in mind that you have won the respect and admiration of your work when you posted the pictures.

Thanks for reading
Todd

Carl absolutely stunning work mate,the first bust warming his hands is my favourite but they are all exceptional.
I would love to see the bronze casts when done,they are going to look quality.

All the best
