    It's been a while since I have posted. Sorry for the absence. This my latest project of a Historex conversion of a young Poniatowski based on a painting by Juliusz Kossak. It is about 85% Historex with a little Magic Sculpt here and there. Painted in acrylics with printers ink for the metals. Comments are welcome as always. Thanks for looking.

    What a wonderful figure!:woot:
    You show what's possible with a HISTOREX Conversion.
    Do you have any pics from the "makin of" process?

    Thanks to everyone for your comments. I forgot to say that the horse's head is actually a Michael Roberts head attached to the Historex neck. I then re-sculpted the neck to blend in with the head.
    Here are a few in process pics of the horse. Thanks for asking Christian. If you have any other questions, please ask and I'll do what I can. Thanks again for looking.

    Rod,

    How about doing an article on this in a magazine? I'd buy the issue.

    Thanks Wayne and Victor for your comments. I am in the process of doing that Victor. I should have the article done sometime after World Expo. I have done a article on another Historex conversion in Soldatini issue 121. You should pick that up.
