SPANISH MUSKETEER, ROCROI 1643
Sculptor: David Fernandez Barruz
Painter: Rodrigo Ciprés
Ref: SFD-006

I love this,definatly on my wish list

Excellent sculpt and characterisation. I'm very tempted, even though it's not my usual period.

...great sculpt, but I've seen the same pose before in a 60mm Kronprinz figure !

Well,well, there we are!.......is it a pose from a film or painting? Perhaps it was in the sculptor's subconcious

Eric There's nothing new under the sun except the sun every morning

Taff I think this represent Captain Alatriste from a series of books and a film of the same name but without saying it !!! and if the old grey matter wasn't shrinking away so fast I could have told you who the artist was who painted the background picture . Perhaps someone with more knowledge will come on and enlighten us ,

Chippy,

nothing wrong with your old grey matter jet !

The background picture is "the last tercio" by Augusto Ferrer-Dalmau
And there is actually a musketeer in it with this pose !

Quote "nothing wrong with your old grey matter jet !". thanks Eric bought for the answer and the complement . Hasn't the drummer boy in the picture already been done as a bust ?
chippy

The drummer boy in the picture has been done by Kronprinz:

Again a good pose and great facial expresion, but he deserves it to have his paint stripped off…..

Thank you, chaps......mines of information,as always. Now I have to look up that picture, and my good lady is already living in trepidation that I'll want another military scene on our shrinking walls

Found it! What a brilliant piece of work, and ripe for a diorama. Bet someone's done it ?...........

Great work.

You can get the diorama through Romeo in 75mm(I did) Beautiful figures.
