Sticking with the Olga Kropotova theme - here is my latest that just arrived yesterday! For my tastes, there is no better painter in Russia and maybe the world at painting Asian patterns! The dragons on the robe and the lotus scene on the back!

This bust is "Cat and Beauty" after the artwork of Utagawa Kunisada (below)
The bust is from Alexandros Models

Between the robe and skin tones of the geisha, I am blown away and could not be happier with this commission !!!

I don't know how many times I've said it with your pieces Zach but this is as good as it gets. It's Absolutely gorgeous! The art and designs on the fabric are entrancing and will surely provide endless hours of appreciative study. The piece seems to glow with an energy all its own! The skin tone and the eyes are transfixing. The color spectrum is magnetic and pulls me toward it. Then the topper for me....I love cats and I'm fascinated by them, and here we have a beautiful blue-eyed feline. Olga's talent is boundless. Thank you for sharing the photos and congratulations!!

Here's a wounded Arab by Russian Vityaz that I recently acquired. It's painted by their top artist Julia Moshura. I thought the pose was pretty unique so I bit the bullet. I hope you like it!

I think that is the best dead or dying figure I've ever seen, Brilliant

Just received it. Rommel figure from Aeroart

This is King Henry VIII with Dog and Falcon - 6417

I am trying to find out the details on this one and will share once I hear back.
If you look on the Aeroart website, the dogs paw is extended.
On mine, the paw is flopped under - it is not bent as the paint is perfect and not chipped. I was told that they didn't like it the way mine is and sent them back to be redone - just haven't confirmed that yet.
Regardless - it is an awesome figure and am very happy with it

Here are all of my Maximilion figures. Not a great photo, but you get the idea - all figures are from Aeroart/St. Petersburg Collection

Although the carriage looks crazy, it is based on contemporary renderings:

This is a small vignette of Cleopatra's Palace. I am not sure who makes the figures, but the diorama was done by Vitaly Puzenko.
All of the walls were hand painted by him - they are not appliques. The diorama base, itself, is what sold me on this one!
