    Vladimir, you had a larger base with rocks in the preliminary stages - have you discarded that one? Resin volume and cost consideration?

    Hi Vladimir,
    I absolutely love it:). Brings back memories of watching the best Long John Silver played by Robert Newton. Great animation and sense of movement. My only observation is Jim Hawkins.......Arrrgh Jim..............the hands look a bit over sized! But I like what you have done.(y) Might just have to buy this for old nostalgic reasons!
    cheers

    I like it but in my vision of Long John Silver he should have a wooden leg, a beard and an eye patch. As with Richie might get it for nostalgic reasons!!!!!

    Absolute cracker Vladimir. I love it (y)
    Captures my vision of Long John perfectly.
    Personally I would paint him as a 'stand' alone figure.
    Will be watching for this being released.

    Friends, thank you very much for your kind words.
    Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson... Nostalgia... Childhood... Hispaniola... Pirates!..

    I tried to do well.
    Yes, Gaudin. Large base with rocks – discarded. Yes, resin volume (1 base = 4,5 figurine) and price of vignettes.
    Yes, Richie. The Jim's hands look a bit over sized. Maybe he's worked very hard in the Admiral Benbow inn, helping his father and mother.;) Perhaps angle photographing.:)
    Friends, once again thank you very much!

    Whoa, Nellie. . . talk about atmosphere and
    dramatic tension . . . These figures are just
    fantastic. Wishing you well with this "enterprise".
    And yes, to one of the posters, I do so well remember
    Robert Newton, the incredible English Character
    actor. There were so many from the British Isles,
    i.e. Dame Mae Witty, Margaret Rutherford, Terry
    Thomas, Alistar Sim (hope I didn't misspell his name).
    Well, I digress, as I'm obviously a lover of vintage
    films, from all nations. Kind regards, Kansas Kid

    "Treasure Island", my favorite book growing up; my favorite film (the Disney version with Robert Newton and Bobby Driscoll), and if this work is going to be commercial, my favorite vignette.

    Please announce when it's going to be available. I can always raid the grandson's college fund...
    :D

    Thank you, Daniele!
    I separate part in the process of sculpting figurines.
    The metal frame has only legs, torso, arms, neck, head and weapons.

    Process modeling of these figures in the topic "Heading for Maracaibo" on http://www.modelsculpt.org/
