Hong Kong Cowboy

Just a single figure I painted in between other figures. It is a Hong Kong copy but I don't know from what brand. He looks a bit as the Airfix one but he is different. Scale is 1/32 and is painted with acrylic paints.





I hope you like him.

Thanks for watching!

Esci Set 238 Muslim Warriors

I painted some of these figures in the past in red and white. Now I wanted to paint them in black and blue to get some variation in the troops. For those who want to know, the figures are painted black and then get a drybrush with grey paint. You can add different layers of drybrush with every next time a lighter grey to get more depth. Figures are original Esci in scale 1/72. Painted with acrylic paints.






I hope you like them!

Elastolin Cowboy 6985 (Copy)

Here is a copy of an Elastolin Cowboy that I painted. The figure reminds me on Gary Cooper in the movie "High Noon". The Elastolin figures were figures I could only see behind glass in the toyshop when I was young. They were much to expensive for one figure, and I don't know what people pay for this kind of figures this day, but I don't think it has changed.

Anyhow it was fun painting this figure. The figure is a bit bigger as 54 mm but not that much that wouldn't go together with my other 54 mm figures. And as Always painted with acrylic paint. I hope you like him. 





Here you can see the original figure in a picture of a catalogue. I have some more of these figures, copies of course, and one day I will paint them.


Some posters of the movies that I used for my inspiration. Wiki page High Noon







And of course I couldn't resist to make a black and white picture!

LOTR Gothmog

Someone said it was Orctober so here is my contribution. Now and then I find it a pleasure to paint a figure of this range (Games Workshop). And this one was lying around here for some time. He is 28 mm high and is painted with acrylic paints. I hope you like him.





More info over this character you can find here:  https://lotr.fandom.com/wiki/Gothmog_(Lieutenant_of_Morgul)

And here is how he looked unpainted:

7th Cavalry

Again some Hong Kong made figures. Copies of Airfix and some others. Painted these as US Cavalry just because I thought it was a good idea. I hope you like them.






The cowboys and Indians will follow in two next posts! Thanks for watching!

Ninja's!

For those who are wondering if I still paint figures, the answer is yes. It's just that I'm not really active on blogger but more on other places (forum and Facebook). And at this moment a bit more collecting as painting to be honest. To be specific in the scale 54 mm.  

These Ninja's are simple Hong Kong made figures, but with some paint on them they don't look that bad. They came with figures that I wanted for my collection but for these I have no need. So I painted them and they will leave me for a soft price. Maybe a kid will be happy to play with these.

I've painted these black with a grey drybrush. All belts are painted in a different color. And I only had six poses.














The big fight! :-D



I hope you like them and thank you for watching. More of this kind of figures will follow, but of the Wild West this time.
