Luca has sent me photos of his newest project that he and Vincenizo Alberici are working on. It is a conversion from a 54mm Soldiers Confederate.





Luca has started on the face.

Very much looking forward to seeing this progress further.
A very attractive pose too I think.

Roy.

I love your manner of painting faces Luca. Excelent!

I'm curious to see how this turns out. It's hard to tell what kind of jacket or coat the figure is wearing. The figure's headgear is a little vague. It is hard to tell if it's a forage cap or kepi.~Gary

Here are the finished photos of the Confederate.







Excellent work Luca...........and fast too

Yes, Guy,

That is indeed very fast painting.
But as always a masterpiece.
I think Gary D. will say something about the colours of the shirt etc.

I'm a little curious about hte pattern of the jacket and "kepi" myself. I would also like to know which figure is the basis of the conversion, if it's acommercial figure the pose might just work for a vignette I have planned for this summer.

I do have some comments that pertain to the accuracy of the figure and I have posted some comments in the proper forum section.~Gary

Thanks Gary,

For me, you know alot of the Civil War. For me at this site off the Atlantic and Northsea it is a far from home episode. Therefore i really apreciate every comment on clothing of this period.
Thanks,
BTW: The figure is masterly painted.

A very nice piece. Very solemm even pensive. I wish we would see more commercial figures like this.
