ive pinned two teens behind the pan piper.

Here are two statuettes sculpted from wires and painted. I pinned some of the figs into two groups. Then set up a scene with some of the foreground figs. As you can see, some of these bkgd figs without legs are not consequentlai.

I completed the sculpts esp on the legs, then painted them. You may notice that some of the faces are men... Im an equal opportunity modeller....hahaha. These and the ones without legs will be placed further behind. To the left, I've added the previous 3 front girls. I've also ptd two bkgd...

Hi Louis Steve Brad and Mike Tx for your interests. We are all assuming this is the Amer Civil War…….:/. I use a lot of my spares and rejects from other projects. Depending on the theme, various makes esp their spares are more useful. I’ve always liked the Historex horses but will use 1/35...

Hi Paddy, And I thot I was the only nut in this thread (worse pun). Hi John, Hoping that this next instalment revives the plot. Ive got to admit that the work here has been a little tedious (even for lil ol me). Im trying to sculpt flower girls and so far, I've faced setbacks after...

Hi John, You seeing a pattern here? hahahha. I'm just getting my act together. Already starting on two mtd figures.

Hi All, Im going to start on another diorama. I've gathered some of the starting pieces. Hopefully it will be another interesting foray. Rgds Victor

Just added a City of London Lord Mayor State coach unfinished piece to my display. It was made from a fairly decent vintage Paramount kit with ambiguous instructions. Im trying to gather more info before I proceed further. I have more vintage Paramount kits featuring a Royal Barouche and The...

Ive finished this piece finally. Done in old school style. Rgds Victor

Enough of linear perspectives. Its been a real distraction. Ive gone back to sculpting the front group. Added wires and sculpted in flowers. Added more flower girls.

Hi Paddy and Steve, Thanks for your nice comments. Heres the final sculpt al ready for painting.

Ive placed the refurbished Britains figs back into the toy soldier display shelf. So left is the toy soldier style British Empire and right is the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

And also three refurbished hollowcast gurkhas, but the one on the left is actually a solid cast pirated figure.

The whole squadron organised as a three troops led by two officers. Senior officer with white gauntlets...

So here are the refurbished figures. Thanks to good inputs from Mike Niederman. pic 1 Troopers are all on the cantering horses pic 2,3,4 Close up of two troopers, showing details and some variation in the horses.

You tk you know it all and then, along comes another opinion to confound yr ideas. Grrr But I notice that one of the lines are fudged to appear to create a very tight vp. I also do tk that this video amisses the analysis of the line along the right stairs which points to the second vp. 😀

Hi All, Been quiet as a toy church mouse fixing and painting this set. I decided that I as three of the figures already seem to have attached arms, whether the correct arm or not, I didnt want to redo them as it would mean trying to prise them away from the flattened plug end. I presume that...

Wonderful stuff, Wolfgang! One of my favourite themes. Rgds Victor

Finally, I got some replacement arms and have started attaching them to my castings. WIP. Just realised that the pix can be inserted as a full size image. You live and learn.....
