    Hello to all
    This is done during the Easter holidays this beautiful piece, that Merlin has kindly procured. I had the idea to lay in the hands of a knife to make it more naughty .. and to remember those bad guys in the film Gangs of New York ....
    So I asked for help to his friend and neighbor BULL (Because of my innate laziness and lack of ability to accomplish these things) that it is very good at handling the plastic .. (as well as good paint figurines) .. : Has kindly made the knife and the jar that you see on the base. He make a very good job ...
    I chose these colors to paint the appear ... , Hello Luca gangs01okred.jpg gangs02ok.jpg gangs03okred.jpg gangs04okred.jpg
