UEM 80mm Graf Von Sporck

Again, another piece I've got on my workbench: UEM's 80mm Graf Von Sporck. Still LOTS of work left on this beaut.

Pete, What's going on? There is so much color there. This is a far cry from WW2 colors.~Gary

I know, buddy. I know. I've been cast adrift in the oceans of history in search of the one WWII subject that would bring me home - an original US Army medic at Bastogne

Ringooooooooooooooooooooooo! Great to hear from you here, my friend. Yeah, I'm writing a book on painting this perfect babe of a figure, sculpted by some lowly lowly sculptor in Switzerland. Gee, I wonder who that may be?

To be honest, I want to get this figure done in time for SCAHMS next Friday so it can meet with your critical eye for painting & sculpting - that is, the critical eye of "Ball & Associates" :lol:

But seriously, amigo, I'm having a real BLAST painting this figure. That addage about "a well-sculpted figure lends itself to a good painting experience" definitely holds true. Thanks for the great painting experience.



So ..... when are you going to sculpt a WWII subject?
