    Hello,

    After 30 years painting figures from the 18th, 19th and pre-20th century, now I have painted a figure from the 17th century.

    Several weeks ago I saw some splendid 75 mm figures from AVANpost (Russia). I ordered them and was very surprised. The casting is very high quality. It was a great pleasure to paint them.

    I show you my first one in the range of the 17th century: the infantry sergeant.
    Enjoy!

    Ben

    I agree, Ben, this range of figures is superb. What nationality is your soldier?
