No Figure today :(

Hey folks,

very sorry to say this, but I got n figure to present today. I tried to finish another one, but simply didn´t have the time to get him done.

As my best friend is around for the next few days, I won´t have much time to proceed either - so this is Season 1 for now, I´ll be following up with Season 2 as soon as I´ve got enough stuff at the ready.

However, on the bright sight, a lot of painting is coming ahead and we´re playing another set of scenarios throughout the next few days, so plenty of other stuff is heading towards you!

A Figure a Day - Day 15: Ulrich

Last East German for a while:

And as promised, the entire group:

Let´s see about tomorrow, I don´t know yet which figure I shall present. I´m running low on finished figures I fear...

A Figure a Day - Day 14: Sebastian

New day, new figure:

The second RPK-Gunner!

Last East German tomorrow, together with a picture of the whole crew!

A Figure a Day - Day 13: Frank

A bit later than usual, sorry I kept you waiting. I got carried away renovating my old Taliban (the first 20mm Figures I ever painted).

So this is our East German Assistant RPG-Gunner:

I´m a bit shocked that it´s day 13 already. Seems like I have to get started with more figures, there isn´t much left...

Two East Germans left, you´ll have to wait until the other day!

A Figure a Day - Day 12: Peter

Another day gone by :(

East German RPK-Gunner (Schütze, LMG-K)

Seeya tomorrow!

A Figure a Day - Day 11: Holger

Here we go with another assaulting East German, firing from the hip.

And a little bonus picture for today: A new, shiny reworked M16 Master.
I believe I have to shorten the magazine ever so slightly, but even so it´s much better than the old version.

A Figure a Day - Day 10: Ralf

You know the deal by now - another figure!

East German soldier firing from the hip
I just noticed that I need to fix the boots... but that´s minor work ;)

Another East German tomorrow!

A Figure a Day - Day 9: Gerhard

New day and we´re changing themes again. With my stocks of R4 running low I´m presenting more East Germans throughout the next few days, until I can hopefully continue building up other ranges with fresh supplies of R4, FN FAL, AK and the likes.

East German RPG-grenadier ready for the shot.

More pictures tomorrow!

A Figure A Day - Day 8: Dean

And another South African, almost forgot to post the pictures.

This is the first batch of SADF with R4, as I don´t have enough R4s in the stockpile I´ll move on to the next range of figures from tomorrow on - but here´s another batch pic.

A Figure a Day - Day 7: Willem

A bit stressed out today, so I´ll leave the usual talking aside and just post a single picture instead of several. Tomorrow will be even worse. :(

A Figure A Day - Day 6: Jan

Hello again.

Today there´s another South African Rifleman for you, with a big headache... well, or maybe he´s just taking cover?!

And another angle:

As we´re reaching the end of the first week, I´ve got enough figures for a second week!
Big question is if you like this format at all, or if I should revert to posting them packed up in larger chunks....

A Figure a Day - Day 5: Piet

Another day, and as usual, another figure.

As promised it´s something different from all the Insurgents presented recently. Next to doing the Insurgents, which where something spontanous, I´ve reverted to the original plans and started expanding my South Africa Range with more Rifles.

So here we go, first figure with R4 Rifle (the rifle itself might get a bigger magazine later on, I´m not yet set on this)

And the backside, not as fancy:

A Figure a Day - Day 4: Jaroslav

Day 4 - I´m a little late today because I didn´t exactly feel like sculpting or photographing and there where some tweaks to be done for this last insurgent. I finally got around to do it though.

Firing Insurgent.

And all four Insurgents from the last four days. Tomorrow I´ll switch to something different.
Hope you like it so far, seems like I can keep going for another week at least with the figures I´m working on right now - but we´ll see about that.

A Figure a Day - Day 3: Anton

Back for day three, with another Insurgent.
Probably not as impressive as the last one, but you need regular fighters as well as character figures. 

Again, this guy is inspired by some of several pictures of ukrainian nationalists, so I called him Anton, avoiding all the typical cheesy choices for russian names.

As you can see, most of the pictures got flashed again, I´ll have to find otu what the problem is and fix it for the next few pictures.

See´ya´ll tomorrow with the last Insurgent for this week - will be switching to another theatre the day after. 

A Figure a Day - Day 2: Babai

New day, new figure!

Today, I´m very proud to present another Insurgent, this time a somewhat more prominent face. I´m very sorry about the quality of the pictures, I tried to remedy what I could with my graphics program so you can see the details, but it´s still too flashed and a little blurry.

This figure is inspired by Babai from Kramatorsk, Ukraine.

One of the picutres of the Original:

And another blurry pic of my version:

See you tomorrow for more Insurgents!

A Figure a Day - Season 1

Hello folks,

procrastinating can be useful to get other things done! I´m overdue learning for an exam, but not very motivated, so I kept sculpting in the breaks between learning (long breaks to be sure). And I have enough Work in progress on my table to spawn an idea: A Figure a Day.

The idea is very simple - I´ll post new pictures of new sculpts throughout the next week, one figure each day.

For today, we´re starting with another Insurgent, very generic, suitabel for just about any place. Inspired by pictures of ukrainian separatists.

Another Insurgent tomorrow!
