    Hi all!

    My name is Fernando Ruiz. I was born in Málaga, Spain, but I live in Barcelona since 13 years ago. I've been watching for some time this excellent forum and I decided to participate. :)

    I have been painting figures for the last 18 years but not until so much ago that I decided to try to improve seriosly my techniques. One of the better ways to do so is attending and participating in shows. The other is to share my work with the rest of the modelers community. I am an active member of Pepe Gallardo's "Un mundo en miniatura" forum and I would like to start a participation in this one too.

    I will post in this same tread some samples of my most recent works. I expect to open a single tread for every one of them in the next days:

    Geoffrey de Chargny Poitiers 1356

    Okey's Regiment Officer Naseby 1645

    The Incredible Berto & Toto's Flying Circus

    [IMG]

    Kung-Fu Rabbit

    I hope you like them :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:.
    Any comment would be apreciated

    Hola Fernando:

    Welcome. Thanks for posting. Always great to see and study others work. I particularly like the subtle finishes you have achieved.

    I was fortunate to visit Barcelona for a couple of weeks back in 2003 when I competed at the World Police and Fire Games. What a great city.

    BTW, love the Pvt Godfrey (Dad's Army) avitar.

    Beautiful figures and great ground work. Would have to go with the first figure as my favorite. The flag and great armor work really set it off! :)

    I would never have imagined such a warm welcome. :D:D:D. I should have come around earlier. Tomorrow, I promise I will post at least one or two treads each focused on one figure, with all the pics and some explanation.
