Happy Wargamer


This figure is specialy made by Alex for members of Benno's forum who did visit FIGZ 2011.
For me as Benno's dad its extra fun to see his name on the pedestal,
so it was right away clear for me to paint the text gold.
We even did sent the figure by post to a lot of members, but the strange thing with colecters items is that nobody wants to paint them. Such a shame, because this figure is realy worth it.



After painting this guy, I am sure to do a knight made by Alex in the future, the details are suberb, and it was realy fun to paint. The only thing what was hard to do was the dice, stupid I know...
Alex is in my eyes a master sculpter, and I would like to thank him for making this figure for us.


More painted Happy Wargames you can find on Benno's Forum 
and personal I hope more will folow.

    Sweet job, Remco. What a clever idea. I can see something like this to be given to the winner of a game, when I am hosting.

    Finally, I thought you would never paint it. And the next FIGZ is almost there! Just teasing Remco, I know you painted it a long time ago! ;-D

    Like Paul asked, will there be a new figure?

    You did a great job on him Remco!
