Completed Trapper, 1840 (Art Girona, 54mm)

[Edward]

Hi, this was a quick project - a small transformation of Raul Latorre's David Crockett figure into a trapper, c. 1840. The only change I made was to add a beard and moustache. It was painted in acrylics. Please let me know what you think!

Nicely painted like the beard, something simple makes such a change

Very nice Edward.I never liked this figure but with the addition of facial hair he looks a lot better.

Great painting Edward.
I am amazed at the difference the full set of whiskers makes. An inspired addition.
Cheers,

Really nicely painted Ed, can I just say he looks very clean, would he not be a little dirty, just a thought. Other than that, it's cracking

The colour of the buckskin is really nice too.

Very nice Ed.

Again, it's amazing the difference facial hair or a different hairstyle gives a figure. Inventive, simple, and very effective mate. Nice one.
