Beautiful work.A subject much neglected.So happy to see that there are modellers out there who still appreciate the old companies and dig deep into their stashes to bring out little gems like that.

I like it a lot. In my opinion such an old figures has a particular charm, as well as the subject who leave from the usual.
Thank so much.

Great looking figure and paint job if I may say think the tree could be detailed up or replaced perhaps with a wall maybe

There are some real gems in folks GA so get 'em out !

Great work! It is a nice set representing different Venetian soldiers. My favourite is the general in gorgeous Renaissance armour. Does Hungarian Friulmodel differ from the original Italian casts in terms of quality?

 

[John Bowery]

Nicely done.

Thank you all, for Sergei, Hungarian Friulmodel, I think, it is the same company moved from Italy. The figures are the same, very beautiful but very old, the series of Venetian subjects are about 25 years old. The subject you call general is not a general, He was the governator of the fortress of Palmanova not far from Udine city in Friuli, He has not military function, The Venetian Nobleman has not military function only civil. The figurine represents the venetian nobleman Girolamo Cappello, who was the governator of Palmanova from 1601 to 1602, In the main square of the fortress there is statue of all the governator. the exactly title of governator was "Provveditore Generale della Patria del Friuli".
