Hello,

I finally decided which elephant will be the next I will be making. I've liked it for a long time now, its time has come.

The Rajgarh State Elephant

I will be posting pictures of the making process as usual.

The Camel Riders from Cutch, carrying emblems is the other set I've planned for April. I love the idea that there are 2 guys on each camel, and that they carry flags with animal shaped emblems.

Hope you like my choices :)

Excellent choices! Did you see the version William Britain did of the camels in matte finish?
 
Scott - Yes, I've seen them. They are larger, and in matte finish. I haven't considered the matte figures' collection from Britain's to be competing with my glossy 54mm line. Do you feel that making them would be repeating a set already made?
I chose them because they are SO colorfull. I'm planning to make 3 sets of those, all different and with different flags-emblems, so they all make a large group like the real one at the Retainers Review. I think they will look stunning :)

No I don't think there will be a problem with you making them. I just mentioned it in case you hadn't seen them. I think your collectors will definitely buy them. They will look great in a group !!
 
Guys

Sorry for not keeping you posted about the 'making of' the new Rajgarh elephant. Here are a few pictures. It's looking great :)

You can never have enough camels or elephants!

Camel riders are almost ready. Lots of different heads for them, all around the picture (I'm so messy)

Yes it is Gorgeous Anna - I'm always astonished by sculptors who make things that I too like to paint.:salute:: And thank goodness that you are "messy" too - I thought I was the only one!!!:D Well done indeed. Johnnybach
