Finished this superb sculpt, the detail is first rate and made it a real joy to paint, all painted in oils

 

[Allen Dewire]

Damn Steve,

I just don't know what to say. I love to follow your figure painting, but usually can't comment because I am a figure painting dummy. This sculpt is soooo cool though, and your finish is most excellent!!! The whole thing is fantastic!!! I wonder what song she's playing while flying along??? Is that some kind of cushion stuffing you used for the smoke???...Looks really good......

Prost
Allen, Lovin' this!!!

 

[Jim R]

Steve, that is brilliant. OK it is a superb sculpt to start with but your painting is up there with the best. You can't help but smile at such a subject.

 

[Valeron]

Beautiful painting and a pleasure to look at. So interesting.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Absolutely cracking stuff…..pure joy on a broomstick……and as to the song, well, there really is only one……all together now…
“A wizards staff has a knob on the end, a knob on the end, a knob on the end…..”

Naahhh! Can't be! With the perfectly natural antipathy 'twixt witches and wizards, it's gotta be "A hedgehog can never be b******d at all!"

 

[JR]

Matron was suitably impressed and has naturally awarded you
Congratulations Steve on a brilliant piece of work , great paintwork all round .

 

[JayCee]

Very good Steve. A distinct change from military figures.

Good call, but beware. If we all join in it will take weeks to coax the goat back down off the privy……….

Woow blown away by all the kind comments chaps. The cloud is made from 'Soft Toy Filling' i picked up from Hobbycraft, Its finer than cotton wool.

 

[PaulinKendal]

Yep, that's a great piece of work. I saw a lot of cotton wool at Telford, letting models down badly. That toy filler is so much better!

That's superb Steve

Don’t know if they’ve got it here, but it is located in a town twinned with Ahnk Morpork, about eight miles south of me……unfortunately the bricks and mortar shop closed at the start of lockdown and isn’t going to reopen…..

About us - Discworld Emporium

It rather tickled our favourite author to have a shop dedicated to his books; a little literary haven where his readers could meet like-minded folk and revel in the wonder and silliness of it all, often in the presence of the author himself. Now closed to the public, the Emporium exists...

She's such a great character in the books and you've made a superb job of painting the figure.
