Medieval Travellers, Wanderers, Pilgrims
As the titel says, these are medieval travellers.
The whole set together,,,except that there´s a dog that comes with them, but he, Beisser, has been used as a companion to Klynt von Osterholz
Vladimir to the left and Estragon to the right (from the "Waiting for Godot" post) and an "overheated" priest.
A member of the Bennos forum, Suso. The dog, beisser, is a copy of his own dog and the pair should really belong together..maybe Klynt will decide he works better alone at some point so master and hound can be re-united.

Three weighed down travellers. The one in the middle would make a trader taking his wares to market, the one to the right is definately a mercenary type, he carries a sword, shield, helmet and crossbow.
The mercenary. I`ve experimented a bit by giving him a bit of a long term not shaved look.
As ever with Alex´s sculpts, the detail is exemplary. Suso carries not only a bow and quiver, but some rope, two knives and an axe handel..and details, like on the rucksack are recreated in such perfection it makes painting these bods a joy.

Fantastic work as always, Paul. Great seeing these unique characters. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteNothing to say, just fantastic! These characters live bravo.

ReplyDeleteHe does remind me of someone...now who could that possibly be??? :-D
DeleteWonderful work, again.
ReplyDeleteReally nice work!

I remember those.
Delete@Gowan...as far as I know, three Bennos people have been made into sculpts, Me, Gunnar and Michel. I still haven´t painted the Michel bod up yet.
But is Michel for sale? I thought that those renaissance fellows only were sculpted.
DeleteFun stuff! the kid wearing the helmet is a nice touch
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely exquisite Paul, the detail is just amazing.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff, full of character. I love the bases, they look like cut from peat, which makes me imagine the travellers wandering through a swamp on a hot summer day. And Cheers :) !
ReplyDeleteSome great poses in this collection.
ReplyDeleteYou've gone and done it again! Very very nice. 1st time though that I've seen figures based on goose pate!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jay.
DeleteThe goose Pate is good...if they loose they get eaten!
Lovely work Paul. I wonder if they are telling stories to each other along the way, like in Chaucer?
