This is a 90mm Andrea Figure kit that I completed early this year. This has to be one of the nicest kits that I have ever worked with - beautiful sculpting, great casting and animation. Custer and the the horse furniture were painted with Andrea and Vallejo acrylics -Vic (Custer's horse) was painted with artists oils. The groundwork was first created with 2-part epoxy putty, covered with real dirt including debris, then Hudson& Allen and various other "backyard" materials were used. Groundwork was then painted with various acrylics and enamel washes. Working in the larger scales is a nice change of pace from working on all the the great W. Britain pieces that I am so fortunate to do!
Please excuse the dust particles on the rifle stock...

You did “Absolutely stunning” work on that Custer figure. There are only a few inthis hobby that can do that level of work and you are sure in the TOP echelon. -- Larry

Whoops!{eek3}I see how much one of these cost and with my painter's fee it would be over $1000 for me.
