    hi!
    this is my lastest fig
    oil painted as usual except for the base which I replaced from the original .

    this marvellous 90mm fig was released a while back from Pegaso, but it remains a classical fig with a beautiful sculture from V.Konnov.

    I must admit i did stuggle a bit with the freehand patterns , present almost everywhere.

    I was happy to win my first Gold medal in the Paris Show last weekend with this fig.
    hope you like it !

    Marc

    I saw this for real at Montrouge and it deserved a diamond not a gold. The freehand work is unbelieveable.

    Cheers

    thanks for all your kind comments
    the regular pattern was built up using a little home made template, and worked up slowly.
    the main problem remained the many folds present throughout both the dress and the coat .
