    Dear Friends
    I hope that you are fine and staying healthy. Here is an in progress photo of a 65mm figure to be released by Elan 13 later on this year. Sculpted by yours truly :)
    Have a great day keep safe.

    Haha! Sorry for the three images!!! My first photo upload! :LOL::unsure::rolleyes:.
    Anyway, I hope you like the figure. It can, of course, be painted as pretty much any drummer from the early and mid 17th century European history. ECW, 30-years war, etc.
    All the best!
    Mike the Swede who finds it easier to sculpt a figure than to upload photos! ;)

    That's one of the best faces I've seen in a long time. The manner in which the body shape is adapted to carry the drum is superb as well. A triumph.(y)

    Well done, Mike, another little beauty. I'm really enjoying doing 16th/17th C figures at the moment, a period I have not explored much until now. Done most of your sculpts, though ;)

    Why do Mike Blank’s figure always look like moving people?
