Nice looking little figures. Had a look at the website and at only 2 GBP and some change apiece you could have yourself a sizable display at a reasonable cost. Good work and hope to see more soon.

Thanks guys. Think I will go with a fairly standard brownish leather finish on the part in question. In early stages of working on a really cool looking model whose helmet has come off and is lying on the ground next to him. This exposes the inside bits to view so wanted to avoid any glaring...
Hoping one of our resident AZW experts can help with advice for the interior construction of helmets worn by 24th foot in Zululand. I am looking at a series of wedge shaped cloth panels that I believe should be green. Also wondering about the composition of the band circling the interior rim...
Simmo, I think for realism, FL has indeed brought the best sculpted figures to the market. And even the worst painted FL figure exceeds the best efforts of the current competition. If you look closely at the work without any bias or agenda it seems quite clear.
Price-wise, the gulf between...
Hey Ken. These gloss conversions look fantastic. Really nice job. I think I like them better than the originals too. So nice to look at, you've got me distracted from the matte universe this weekend. I hope you will show us more of your handiwork.

Another beautiful work Rod. Agreed about the cool base too. Is this from the guy in Oklahoma by chance?

Always love to see your finished projects.

Now you've got me digging through my photo albums. Here are a couple more images. One is a portion of the sizable herd grazing at Theodore Roosevelt National Park in Northwestern North Dakota. The other is a shot of the Bison Interpretive Center situated within the grazing range of the Brule'...
Ales, I admire the sentiment you are intending and no question the fate of the Bison and the Plains Tribes is tragic and regrettable, but.....it really is not as dire with the American Bison nowadays as you suggest. There are literally herds of all sizes all over the country. There is one with...
Thanks Noah. I really appreciate the feedback. Have not done much painting since this was finished unfortunately. Maybe this week will see me more inspired and motivated and all that good stuff. :rolleyes2:

After much reflection have decided to unload the AWI collection. Most of this is FL, but a couple of WB items also up for sale.
First item is a group of 12 FL AWI Colonial Militia figures I would really prefer to sell as a group. Included are AWI01, 02, 04-12 and 19. Asking $400 for the...
