Another crop of miniature F1Driver Figures

I’ve just started another crop of Formula One Driver figures – these metal figures in 1/43rd scale are intended to accompany model cars and add a human dimension to diecast collections.  Having said that, as a long time miniature figure painter (mainly military), I always assemble and paint my figures to exhibition standards, so they can be displayed as miniatures in their own right.    These figures are by Denizen Miniatures (run by Chub Pearson) http://www.denizenminiatures.co.uk/ and are probably the best (in terms of detail and anatomical proportions) 43rd scale figures around.  I’ve just assembled, based, undercoated and blocked in the … Continue reading Another crop of miniature F1Driver Figures

Stephens Green Art 2008

The final Stephens Green “Art week-end” of 2008 took place last week-end 19th – 21st Sept’.  The weather was very good with plenty of warm sunshine over the three days – what a contrast to the terrible rain we all experienced in August and June!  I was located on the East side of the Green and I must say it was very pleasant sitting in the sunshine enjoying the wonderful “banter” and company of the other artists. Once again the standard/quality of the art was very high and I was “blown away” by some of the wonderful pieces on display … Continue reading Stephens Green Art 2008
