Andi. Great idea. I like it very much. If it would be not so difficult to paint the Ta moko that would be one for me

Hi Andy,
Nice piece. Is it a one off or it will be for commercial purpose. In that case could you tell me where that figure will be available (and when ) in Europe UK, France, ...?
Thanks
Pascal

I really like it! Maybe the first bust of your range for me!

Andy I like the way this ones progressing ,a great subject and some nice detail work .

Cheers Ken

Lots of nice detail on this one Andy & impressed by the posing of this one too. Seems very natural.The flax bag would be an interesting & challenging touch, perhaps you could use some real material to get the effect?

I was fortunate enough to visit Ruapekapeka Pa site today:

This guy would have been a potential contender as one of the defenders.
I look forward to seeing how this pair (bren gunner) turn out.

Keep us posted.

One fine sculpt after the other! Great, Andy!

All the best to You
