WIP YS Masterpieces, Turkish Military Leader Ibrahim Pasha, Conversion

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Hello.

I first time trying sculpt something on my models. I started to try relatively easy parts like legs covered dressings and boots with Super Sculpey Firm. Bust itself was presenting excellent base for this kind of work. I am still painting it. Used Vallejo's only. Thanks for lookin.

 

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Sorry for horrible photos in up, I tried some new shots..

 

[Graham]

I really like what you have done to this. Such skills I can only dream of.

 

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Thank you for kind words Sir.

 

[Mike Stevens]

Nice conversion and a really cool idea.

 

[Colin_Fraser]

Great idea and well done. You might not be able to bring it into the US as the head dress design is similar to the confederate flag.

 

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Thank you Mr.Stevens and crf .

I might not in such way, but I will probably update it with more thin stripes in gold, may be some stars too

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Many thanks for kind words gentlemens

 

[Trex]

A very good idea and wonderfully executed!
Congratulations Serhan.

If I may propose something, it would be nice to try to sculpt also the traditional Ottoman shoe of mid 19th century (if it's possible now)

 

[SERHAN OFLAS]

Hello Trex. Thank you for kind kind words.

I was thought about the case mentioned.

The time periode of the figure was the last century of the Ottoman Empire. Specially in late 1700's modernisation ideas was started in the society.

This figure actually representing Ibrahim Pasha Governor of Valona of the Ottoman Empire in 1820's . I decided to do something more updated on foots when figure setup fully armed and in Campaign awarness..

I will keep in mind this case and try arrange a couple of this kind traditional footwear to his "friend" Ali Pasha from town Tepelena governor of Ionnia, which I will try as next project.

Thanks for your interest and head up about the footies.

 

[Theodoros]

The proportions (torso vs legs) look good and the pose of the whole figure too. Nice modification Serhan !
