Hi guys. Have any of you painted this figure from pegaso? What I would like to know is is any good? Some pictures would be great. Cheers. Hardy

Hardy, is this the figure in question? If memory serves me right I don't think anyone of us ever painted this dude

As you know, I bought his counterpart by Romeo Models @ Euro, and was contemplating of buying this fig in question in the near future for a vignette.

Sorry can't help you with this one matey

Ray

Thats the one mate, thought he would have been very popular amongst you guys. Want to see the face close up before I pay £85 quid for him!!! Hardy

Sorry mate

Never saw one upclose but I remember Augie giving him a good thumbs up in his review ... we got the new 90mm by Romeo brand new and first batch during Catania show, probably shall be in full production beginning of next year ... it is a must have my friend, we love it, we got 3 out of the first 5 : )

Ah Ivan beat me to the TEMPTATION

Take his word mate, as Sam, himself, and me all got one of those gems would be nice to paint them alltogether if you're not bound with a specified time frame to get him done that is...........well you'd still have to buy it anyway

Ray

Be gentlemen then and post some images up of the castings please..... Hardy

The figure Ivan ponted to and which Ivan, Sam and me bought from Catania, is going to be released by Romeo next year. We bought the 3 available out of the 5 which Lorenzo had on his stand....yep we're helping him get his kids to college for sure

What we can do is take a few pics of the box art and of the castings. If Sam or Ivan don't deliver the goods before me, I'll try my BEST ASAP

Ray

Thanks mate. Hardy

I took the privilege of taking some pics of this marvellous kit =] =]

Enjoy mate =]

P.S. this kit can have a double handed sword or an axe held in his right hand

Weldone Sam you're an angel

How about showing Hardy the box art so he'll get a clearer picture of the whole figure

Ray

Thanks for that Sam, going to get one as soon as he is released. Hardy

You won't regret it mate honestly. And the face would still be visible beneath the fixed visor. The other option which is not so tangible IMHO is to give him the other helmet which is meant to be on the ground, make it fit the head and sculpt the mail on the neck portion, which is not there, since it would be covered by the great helm. A bit too much of a hassle again IMO

Just be prepared for a bit of flash here and there and mould lines as well something which featured on the Scottish Piper I've started and something which honestly didn't expect from Romeo's castings especially on a freshly released figure.
But having said that it is an exceptional sculpt with Gianni La Rocca at his best!!

Ray

i just edited....the pics

ray i know im an angel

Cheers Sam, thats a must have figure... Hardy

I knew you would say that mate

Hardy how come I missed this one

And am really surprised how neither Sam nor Ivan have come up with it before me as I'm sure it was one of them who took this pic while in Catania (I think it was Sam but am not sure anyway)

Anyway was browsing in my folder and at the end I spotted this one

Enjoy and salivate even more matey

Ray

Wow, what a beautiful figure, a true masterpiece. I hope one of you decides to do this, i would love to see it live at the club. That is absolutely gorgeous.

Morn Brian,

Ivan, Samwel and yours truly bought one each while in Catania the first 3 out of the 5 available there on the Romeo stand so you should see 3 at the club at some point, where i would like us to paint them all together. What a buzz it would be, all three painting, posting, and bring progress to club

Ray

Holy shit!!! I want it even more!! Hardy

A good morn to you too Ray. That is excellent news, it really is a great figure, the sculpting is lovely and all the detail makes it really interesting.

Brian, as you can see, it could be four of us painting this dude at one go with Hardy posting from UK

Ray

I guess Hardy shall go for a Templar or a Teuton?

Hardy drop a mail to Romeo they might still have one of the gems available ...

Ivan
