I have built up a personal collection of miniature figurines. Starting with commercially available kits, the collection was gradually built up to represent various aspects of military subjects and now, includes many other unique figures which represent cultural subjects, all sculpted from epoxy putty, plastic and metal over wire armatures. This blog will record the curation of this diverse and evolving collection.

Tibetan Bass Drummer
I came across this unusual picture of a Tibetan band, where the bass drummer had suspended his instrument on his left thigh and was drumming on one side only.This was the same suspension for the side drums.
So I've decided to model this figure. Scalelink head, Dorset bass drum casting, Airfix torso and Heller legs. All the strut details were filed away on the drum. The 1/35 Heller legs should give a shorter looking figure.
