WIP Modelix - WW1 Portuguese Lewis gunner

[BESPJL]

HI,

This one is the current WIP along with other 3 figures. WW1 Portuguese Lewis gunner inspired on a real portuguese soldier: Soldado Milhões

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aníbal_Milhais

The brand (Modelix) is from a portuguese sculpteur, Vitalino Chitas.

Hope you like it.

This is nice to see ...like the basework so far with the figure painted will really look great

A very brave man you choose to depict

Following with interest

Happy benchtime

Hi Paulo
Thanks for introducing us to this soldier, his amazing record & this local figure brand.
Particularly like extensive groundwork display behind Aníbal.
Look forward to seeing your project completed.

Where can we all find more on Vitalino’s products?

Base looks great! Can't wait to see the rest

The contribution of Portugal (and I think Brazil too) to WW1 tends to be overlooked. A worthy reminder to their sacrifice and bravery. Obrigado!

Superbly painted basework. Figure looks nice. Lewis gun looks a bit rough and lacking in detail.
