Thank you, imodeler! November prize arrived last week.
I wanted to say a big thank you to the folks at imodeler! The prizes from the November contest arrived just a few days ago. They were a beautiful 75mm figure from Pegaso of a Captain ADC to Marshal Suchet 1811 and a wood figure base from Andrea Miniatures. As you can see I wasted no time and have already begun to assemble and paint the figure. I'll be putting together a full step by step walkthrough of the project over in the figure section of this site, so keep an eye out for it.
3 additional images. Click to enlarge.

Congratulations, David...what is that the figure is on in the photo..?

Thanks, Craig. It's a universal jeweler's vise. It has a handle which has been removed so it will sit flat on the table (screws in and out). It also comes with pegs to hold a variety of differently shaped object. You can find them on Amazon for about $15. They're great for figures and I imagine could come in handy for other types of modeling too.

I have always thought that a someone who is a artiest knows how to interpret light. This is a skill you have David. I have enjoyed your posts and your modeling.

I was never interested in figures until seeing yours! I can't wait to see your next creation. Thus far it looks like another winner!
