Oda.

Very beautiful work! Another great news by Eltaller !

They should name the sculptor on their site. I didn’t realize Antonio Zapatero was sculpting these. Thumbs up.

Henkm no problem. The money arrived correctly and this week the figure will go to your address. Thank you very much.

Thank you!

Thank you very much Oda. When we freely reproduce historical figures, the duty we have is fidelity to rigour.

Hi Reptor,
Thank you for your comments.

Hi kevininpdx,
Antonio Zapatero has been working for the El Taller-Hobbyart from the beginning.
The one that is not mentioned on my website is at the request of the sculptors.

Very nice, I like the choice of two heads.

Hi Nap,
Thank you very much for your comment. I am very pleased that you like the choice of the two headwear, as well as the horse sheen.

Thanks Eduardo. It is always good to have two different alternatives.

I just came back from holidays to find this amazing figure from this Spanish brand. Fantastic image of king George V. Such a great detail adding the second head option. El Taller-Hobby art is becoming a reference for horseback figurines.

Thank you Paul. Your words are always kind.

I came home from work and found my George V had galloped halfway across the globe. Faster than expected, beautifully packed and a wonderful cast. Beautiful box art as well. Thanks Miguel and El Taller!

Looking for references other than the excellent box art, I came across a few colourised photos. They look gorgeous but are the colours accurate? There is criticism in the comments on the red on the second one, for example. Links here:
