http://www.planetfigure.com/forums/showpost.php?p=449795&postcount=1

Its my pleasure to be able to show you another one this time painted by someone we have seen previously on PF, well I did say we would be seeing more from this talented lady in this post:

The frau's name ..well of course its Marielyne Neurohr

Marilyne has been painting for about 13 years and in the past mainly a flats but ventures into normality !!! painting full figures and busts (ye hah) and working using mainly Acrylics)

Have a look at her website : http://www.creationcouleurs.de/creationcouleurs/Kontakt.html
and for some of her flats

This time she has put her talents to producing the box art for another UP Miniaturen release (again which I shall be doing a full review on soon) this one being :

Prince Oskar of Prussia 1917 (a Generalmajor of the Grenadier Regt No 7 and Grandmaster of the Order of St John)

Art Nr: 0027

There looks to be some really nice painting especially on the colour of the uniform , of course this would have been top quality material and I think this has ben captured by Marielyne very well , I also like the small beard he sports and the helmet he carries .

Sculpting again looks to be really close to the picture I have attached to this post ,capturing the features .....so well done Ulrich .

As always this will be available direct or from Historex Agents in the UK

I look forward to the review model and sharing my thoughts with all of PF .

I like the bust,I think it's the best of Puchalla until now.
The painting is absolutely consistent and succeeded, congratulations to the artist.
Cheers

I agree - a superb likeness and evry tempting even though I don't know who the subject is.

I like this piece. If it was mine I think I would alter the hair a little to make it stick up slightly like it does in the photograph of Prince Oskar. The face is a good likeness and it is well painted.

Nap,

NGD(new guy Dave) would do a masterful job on that piece, I was hoping to raise his head as he used to lurk around on here, He probably has an actual uniform tunic to match your bust
