Geriatrix

This time the smallest and oldest member of the village from my Asterix & Obelix range

Not much colors for this guy, and looking to the size he could be 1/72 as well

From this metal serie I got this figure:

Man stuck in Pillory

This was a very small project, the base is a 1 eurocent coin

the figure is made of metal and comes in 2 parts,

one is the pillory with head and hands, and the other part is his body.

It is a single figure bought at Crises Antwerp 2010 from Magister Militum i believe...

real fun to paint, I recommend it to everyone!

Fulliautomatix

Here you see the smit from the small Gaul village from Asterix and Obelix.
This guy always has a quarrel with the fish seller from the village.

Gerardus Mercator

This figure was a free gift for all the visitors of event Crisis 2011 (Antwerp-Belgium)

The figure is made of metal, and as base I did use a 2 eurocent.
Learn more about him here!
It was fun painting this historical figure, let's hope you like him to!

Scrooge

This small vignette I did make a year ago for the paining competition on Benno's Forum
The theme was christmas, so I tought "Humbug... what will I make"

I came up with the idea of making a part of the christmas carol, a scene his dead partner Marley brings Scrooge to his own grave..

The gost of Marley is made of a skeleton fig, who has a chain for al the bad things he did.
This chain is made of a old necklace chain given to me by my girlfriend.
The skeleton figure I got from Paul, it was a figure without a head.
Just made a cape out of aluminium foil

The gravestone is made of foam, and for those who woundering why there isn't any snow at the side of the vignette where Scrooge is, thats to show the difference between dead (cold) and alive (warm)

Hope you like it...

And because of first X-Mas day today, I tought it would be a nice day for posting!

Merry Christams "humbug"

Thomas Leatherboy

Cheers on this wounderfule figure made by Alex as a gift and limited edition for the forum meeting in Kampen (NL) 2010.

The idea of this figure was born in the chatroom of Bennos forum, where my good friend Thomas showed his picture wearing a lederhose. His plan was to visit us in Kampen, so we asked Alex to make this small German beer drinking figure. I am proud to show this figure here, even some of my friends did a much better job as you can see on Bennos forum.

This figure deserved a peddestal, so I bought a small beerglass, filled it with foam, and some gleu for the drops on the glass.

A special thanks to Alex, who did make this posible for us!

Super Man

This is a remodeling of a old atlantic "africa korps" figure, a german granate trower.
I cut of all the extra's, made a cape from tissue and woodglue, and made his body more shaped.
Also cut off the base, and drilled a hole in his knee because I wanted this guy to fly.
One arm and one leg I did bend a little to get him look a bit more like Superman.
The base is from a botle cap with foam in it, a small iron wire and some fill material.

And here a few pictures from the start of this small project:

Alexander's Thessalian Cavalry

Here is a other entry I made for a duel on Benno's forum

It was a duel against my friend Peter, and these where the first non WW2 solders I painted,
and also my first horses. The painting on these figures from Hat set 8048 was hard,
because the plastic was soft and the paint didn't hold on to good.
The horse who walks on front, had a panther skin on him, what was a hell to paint.
The landscape is made from PUR with some small stones and grass on it.

I did use as a painting guide the Osprey book "The army of Alexander the Great"

Dracula

This one is a small vignette I made for a duel on Benno's Forum

The figure is from Lucky Toys (TL0011) Vlad Tzepes
The dueling theme was "Going to bed" so I made a own design coffin out of foam,
and put foil in the inside to make it look like a soft bed.
The candlestick is made of 3 electrical wires and a candle from foam.
The floor, and the wall are also made of foam, the window is made out of a piece of plastic from a icecreambox, painted this in original bat theme design.
At last I made a stool out of foam, so Vlad can get better in to his bed!

Hope you like this one, for me it was a lot fun making!

Abraracourcix

And here is my 4th figure who is painted: The chief of the village Abraracourcix.
Usualy two of his guards carry this man around...

From this metal serie I got this figure:
