    hello again
    thanks again to you all for your kind comments on my Richard "the Lionheart"

    This is my latest fig which I finished just in time for the coming Paris Montrouge show.

    I really liked this fig sculted by M.Bruno - 75mm- a limited edition (Monreale 2012 show)
    I was greatly inspired by the box art painted by D. Cartacci.
    I tried to give the figure and the base an automnal look...
    First time for me using these oil colours (essentially Mars brown and cadmium yellow deep)
    hope you like it...
    thanks
    Marc

    I'm certain this will do very well at the Paris show. You've done a spectacular job on the painting and base work! (y)

    Beautiful painting Marc,the brown colours and the stripped stockings are great,great work on the groundwork,he really does look part of the scenery,the attension to detail is brilliant,the design on the powder horn is great,these little details make all the difference and really give this figure so much more :)
