75mm figure

 This week I have something unusual, a 75mm historical figure.

Once in a while it is fun to do something different from the usual. This is a XV century jousting knight (minus the horse).

It is from Amati Models, a good friend of mine used to work there as a sculptor and designer and got a whole bunch of old models as samples and examples for future works.

I ended up with a few of them and when I feel I need a palate cleanser I can paint one.

This was relatively simple, but the striped lance was very challenging. I took it as an exercise to practice straight lines, the result is not the best, but good enough for what I'm concerned, looking at the model from a few feet distance it looks good.
