    Hi Guys! Finally, the State Elephant of Cooch Behar is ready, and looking awesome. It was an absolute pleasure to make it and paint it. The group is very colorfull in person but, as usual, I don't feel that my pictures are making it justice. Sorry for that. Set 498 - State Elephant of Cooch...

    Yes, that is definitely the best picture of the elephant of Mysore. I have a picture of the guards with the unique spears. I bought it from the British Library (it is a digital copy), and it shows these men in the Retainers Review. It can be seen emblem carriers and lancers as well. Can't wait...

    What was the Delhi Durbar 1903?

    The truth about the color is always one of the main issues that I face at the time of painting the elephants. We know that yellow photographed black, as well as the red color. But the thing about this elephant is that, as Hyderabad was in front of all the other Princely States elephants, it was...

    What was the Delhi Durbar 1903?

    Hi again, I looked through my photos and found a couple that might clarify the question about the finials. Let me know if the three finials can be seen clearly. I'm always trying to keep the kb of my images to the minimum, but I can work something out a bit better if needed. Just let me...

    Thank you, J. You are always SO generous with your knowledge, that goes way farther than mine. And thanks for your thoughts, they are really useful. I will make the Mysore elephant before the Hyderabad one. You are right about that the ones already made are not strictly accurate. It is also VERY...

    What was the Delhi Durbar 1903?

    Hi again, Well, here is my second question. You know that I want to portrait the whole Main Procession, and Daniel and I have been making the elephants from both columns in order to achieve that. I am still far from completing it, but I've always had a pending issue about the first elephants of...

    What was the Delhi Durbar 1903?

    Wow! Thank you for the photos! They are wonderful. They are perfect, they can be seen side by side. Thanks! I knew that Bill (Hocker) had made one from the previous Durbar, which I think is exquisite. I also believe that Britains' has the best howda, the most accurate. If I decide to go for the...

    Hi! Happy 2022 to all! :) I have a couple of questions regarding the elephants schedule. I would love to have the whole Main Procession from the very beginning, but I want to ask for your opinions about them. First question is about the two official elephants that were in front of all the...

    Hi again, I realized that the picture of the State Elephant of Hill Tippera, set 490 that I posted on April has no driver in it. Shame on me! Here is the new photo, with the mahout as I should have done from the beginning. How can I have missed him. It is so cute! This limited series...
