    Hello Guys,

    thank you very much for looking and your kind comments. I really appreciate it.

    @Mike: It´s very nice to hear that this is one of your favourites photo. And I´m very glad that you like the sculpt.

    @Paul: First I wanted to welcome you to the planet. I always use Magic Sculp for sculpting and sometimes (for very fine sculptings that need more flexibility) I use Duro. Both are very fins puttys and you can do nearly all what you want. I hope that helps. If you have more questions you can mail me, if you want.

    @Eddy: Thanks for your kind words. When I have finished the complete fignette it will be painted by Ulrich.

    The best wishes,
    Markus

    ...here is the next step on the base:

    The cobble-stones-street is finished and the steo, too. And the colum is growing...step by step.
