I started to assemble these resin castings. Various poses can be created by converting the modular parts.
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.

Resin castings of Elephant parts
I cut up a toy elephant into modular parts and made resin castings of these. The parts can be used to assemble about 5 elephants.

Updating the earlier posts
I am getting back into refreshing and updating this blog.
Where possible, I am enlarging the pics to give a better viewing experience and expounding upon the text to give better insights.
To make it easier to read and follow on the modelling changes for each piece, I will also group the entries for each piece together, gathering the earlier entries and moving them forward to join later entries. This will decrease the number of separate entries and make it much easier to navigate this blog.

Henry VII and Francis I
These two monarchs are refurbished side-by-side here. More recently, I have been restoring older figures with better sculpting techniques and a differently painting approach.
Henry VII is a converted Traditions toy soldier figure. Francis I is a LeCimier casting. Both figures were cleaned up and restored.

Greetings
Hi All,
It's been awhile since I last posted here. I've just made some minor edits here and there to earlier posts.
I hope to add further posts soon.
