Working on this nice old Moz Corry figure, released under his own name. I am not sure who has these kits now. Early days on this and the face and beard are not yet completely done. Pants are only undercoated. I scraped the "US" off his belt.

Colin

Your rebel is looking pretty good Colin !

Joe

Great start on this guy... One of my fav Moz figs. Are you doing it in all acrylics and inks or are you laying on some oil too?

Following along...

Colin

BTW have I seen this somewhere else? Like deja vu all over again

Looking really good Colin. The trousers from the pics actually looks like cloth

Cheers

Ray

....don't mean to sound like a button counter, but this is a Pete Moreton figure......sorry.

Very good so far.

Funny. I won't argue with you but I am pretty sure I bought it direct from Moz personally when he did hid first 3 Crimea light cavalry 75mms. Why would he have been selling Pete's work with his own? But then it could be my old man memory failing me

In any case, a nice piece. The set of the eyes was a bit of a challenge with the right one looking to be a litle further from the nose than the left (IMO).

Thanks for the interest.

Colin

The flesh looks superb Colin.
You have really captured the spirit of this guy.
Nice work.
Keith

Very nice piece of work Colin so far,look forward to seeing it completed

Great job so far on this piece. It is one of my favorites and was a lot of fun to paint.

Colin
Absolutely superb, great start.

Thanks gents. Here is this morning's progress. Tom is right. Great fun to paint!

BTW Colin, all acrylic and acrylic inks so far.

Colin

This is definately the work of the late great Pete Morton and sculpted for Mozs Company,Pete was working for/with Moz at the time.Pete did a couple of figures for Moz.
Great painting by the way
Regards
Pete

Thanks Pete....so we learned something. And this would be my first Pete sculpt. What a loss his passing was in terms of sculpting and character. This place hasn't really been the same since :-(

Colin

Y'all doin a nice job on this here piece!

Bob

Thanks Bob...."y'all come back now!"

In my criminal haste I forgot to add that you've done a nice job with it as well. Not easy lining up the figure with the fence....

Your version looks great so far - I enjoyed painting this figure (by Pete Morton) but I chose the other head with the kepi. It's a very good sculpt, I love the pose.
