Cheesey153 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I'm currently going through my stash of older figures and giving some attention to long neglected pieces. This is a figure from Pegaso sculpted by Mike Good of British WW1 Pilot Lanoe Hawker VC. Painted in Vallejo acrylics with the use of some inks to aid the leather effects of the rather fetching baggy trousers. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcap Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Lovely painting on a great figure. Glad I got one before it went OOP at Pegaso. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesey153 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Thanks gents! Any figure sculpted by Mike Good is going to look at least half decent when painted - he provides such a superb canvas and I have to say he's my favourite sculptor. I didn't know this was now oop - it's been sitting in my stash for years and I always felt it was too good to let go, and I'm now very glad I didn't! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredG Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 When you see this figure and the photos of Lanoe, it's not obvious that he was only 25 when he died. Nowadays 50 year olds look younger. Impressive painting BTW 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Mapes Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 This is amazing work and I think my favourite so far this year. I can't believe it is only 54mm! So accurate. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
