Time for books and coff ieeeee

This month I show you another fantastic figure.

Found him as a free STL file on the internet HERE

If you know me a little bit,

you know that I am always looking for non violent figures. 

And this one is so funny, I had to have it.

Just sent the link to my bonus son: The Frost City

Fortunately, my bonus son has a 3D printer,

and I ordered 2

so I could duel with these on Bennosfiguresforum.

I chose a somewhat colorful outfit, 

and decided to give him socks with a stripe pattern.

But that was not the intended result,

so it ended up being a diamond pattern.

In the end everything was in a color combo I liked,

and even though the coffee broke down 2x during the painting process,

I was happy with the final result,

just need to take some pictures for the duel....

And yes, I want to take it off the painter's helper,

and crack.... ohhh no....

So off to work with the superglue again,

first his leg and later for the third time the coffee,

and then touch everything up again with paint.

Eventually this also gave me the obligation 

to give the bottom of his stockings

a slightly different motif through the glue layer.

This result too was satisfactory.

And even though my opponent also made a great entry,

I got to declare myself the winner for once. 

A nice little figure, though difficult to paint with the books,

but highly recommended as far as I'm concerned.

Check out the duel on Benno's Figures Forum HERE

Angélique

 This is my lovely wife Angélique

as you can see she loves squirrels

thats is why she loves to visit my house hahaha

I gave the squirrel a white breast, 

I think those are the nicest ones

this figurine has been digitally composed especially for me

the figure is a 3D print I got from Jurrien

together with a figure of myself

which I already showed in June

I tried to make her as I know her with a mixed shirt,

bleu jeans and fancy shoes

I am happy with the result

and love her as much  like the original

Just look how happy she is!

Arent we a cool couple together.

Thanks for watching, hope to see you next month again 

Wizzard of Frog

This month a special figure...

A frog, and no it's not Kermit

but a real Wizzard!

It was a Father's Day gift from my bonus son

He printed it in resin in 28 mm scale

This figure was quite outside my comfort zone but

"non violent" so hopefully I gave him the right colors

in his staff are even 2 bird skulls that are attached

with a rope through their eye socket

In his hand he has a beautiful lotus flower

which I have given a golden tint

Some feathers show off on his shoulder

I made the bottles and the bag on his belt extra colorful

you can only see 1 foot,

but those green toes are really funny

for the base I took a metal ring,

and put some stones and grass on it

That was the contribution for this month again,

I hope you liked it

 

Mini ME

 

This month a cool figure 

especially when you know me.....

My bonus son Jurrien designed this fantastic figure

of me wearing my shirt an cargo trowsers

and made a cool 3D resin print of if

This was something different, to look in the mirrow and paint myself.

Unfortunately I ate the ice cream while painting, so you'll have to do without it.

Thanks Jurrien for this fantastic gift!

Vlaai for FIGZ

Mhmmm what is that nice smell?

    This must be that pretty lady my good friend Peter always orders his vlaai from, 

before he comes to FIGZ, and now we understand why.... hahaha 

    I got this figure from my stepson, who printed it for my birthday.

It's a own design, made on a website, and I love it!

    Yeah it's a beautiful lady with a sweet cat who also seems to love cake.

    As you can see I tried to make a floral pattern on her apron.

    To make it a bit different, I did go for a somewhat colorful this time.

    This lady is crazy about colorful patterns...

  I painted the cat a bit in the Aristocat style. Isn't it sweetie...

Now I will focus on FIGZ next week,

got a few Romains to show there!

Thanks for your visit, hope you liked it.
