Minuteman Models mountain man bust...



This one will be released under the Minuteman Models moniker (sister company to Tiger Models owned by Jose T. Rodriguez). It depicts a mountain man of the 1800's in a 200MM bust. It is a very clean sculpt and I've learned you can add quite a bit of artistic license since there are no real guidelines to colors! Minute Man Models will launch their own website very very soon. The address will be www.minutemanmodels.com. They also have 2 more new figures scheduled to be released shortly a 120MM U.S. medic Normandy era and to my excitement a 120MM U.S. Marine of the early 1800's. Thanks to those who helped me out with some interesting color plates and reference for this bust it was a fun little project and thanks to Jose Rodriguez for allowing me to paint the box art. Bust is painted as always in Vallejo acrylics.

2 Paras...



I finished this one the night before the Long Island show. It's a 200MM vignette based on 1 OOP Warriors fallschirmjager and another which was sculpted by John Rosengrant but never was made commercially available. They are painted in acrylics and it was a fun project to work on. This was very hard to take pictures of due to the 2 different levels of groundwork that I engineered for them. I think the people who saw it live at Long Island will have a better take than what the pics show.

120MM P.M.C. from New World Miniatures...



Hello all! This is my latest figure completed and will be the box art for New World Miniatures 120MM release coming shortly, This was another figure completely out of my realm but it was fun and Chris Mrosko certainly provided me with a ton of reference for him. he as usual is painted in all Vallejo acrylics.

120MM MG42 gunner...



Hello all! This is my latest figure rom Jeff Shiu Miniatures. He is a MG 42 gunner circa 1943/44. I've listed him as being at Kharkov but is probably in the proper garb to go all the way to Cherkassy I would think. He is an absolutely outstanding sculpt and was a pleasure to lay a brush on. As always he is done in all vallejo acrylics.
