I recently completed this shadow box. It is quite small, 9 1/2 X 7 1/2 inch frame, encompassing a 1/24 figure lying prone and surrounded by foliage.

The piece is based on a pre-Raphaelite painting by Sir John Everett Millais.

Here is a close up of the figure.

Being a fervent Pre-Raphaelite admirer myself Icannot but comment highly on such an artistic and pioneering piece of modelling.Congrats Victor!

Oda.

Great work and painting

Mobo

That is excellent Victor. A couple of years ago they held a pre-Raphaelite exhibition in my local museum (Ashmolean) and I went along. There was some jaw-dropping work on display. There is a Rembrandt exhibit at the moment but of course it is not open due to CV-19 restrictions.

Great inspiration, very well finished.

Military miniatures painted by Eduardo Garcia

Beyond amazing, this is superb modelling. I look forward to seeing you do a Gustav Klimt

Hi Nap, Oda, Mobo, Phil, Eduardo and Blind Pew,

Thanks for looking in and for your generous comments.
Very encouraging for me to carry on in this direction.
Naturally, I look for figurative paintings to explore fas subject material.

I was actually going to pontificate on my modelling skills but sandwiched between Frank Edet's superb wave and Bill Horan's masterclass threads, I think that I shall continue to meditate...hahaha.

Really creative and skillful work, very well done!

Hi Ferris,

Thanks for your very generous comments.

I realised that the pictures don't show the face. So here's another pic. Sorry about the angle but shadow boxes are hard to photogragh.

Rgds Victor

Nicely done!

Hi Matt and Kevin,

Thanks for your kind comments. Another one coming up soon...
