Hi all Just finished this figure for Gringo40's.
It will be one ogf the kick off figures of their up coming range of the mexican revolution. So it's time to review "Agachate madlito" ;)
I hope I have been able to grasp the look and mood of the famous Doroteo Arango.
Hope you like it.

Very, very nice. That's one of those periods that knocks around in my head from time to time, but I've never pulled the trigger, so to speak. Now it's tempting again! |

Excellet. Is this being done in 40MM or 28MM? |

I have to say I'm not fond of that figure. The head and hands look a bit out of proportion to the body. Thought the
Egyptian battalion figures were better. |

I agree. Everything about the figure looks off. |

"Title says 28mm."
Somehow I missed that, thanks. |

That is a very poor sculpt. Looks like a walk on extra from Captain Scarlet or Thunderbirds. The previous releases have been really good, this one not so. |

In terms of sculpture the face looks great,there is some likeness, proportions may slightly deceived by the "urban sombrero"!!!
The picture should be taken right in front of the figure rather than from above, as this can also make the heads and torso look bigger. |

Cracking figure. he looks all in proportion to me. An excellent start to what promises to be the definitive range. Loving it! |
| CooperSteveOnTheLaptop | 31 Jan 2012 10:10 a.m. PST |
proportions are fine, the big hat plays tricks on the eye |
| ONIRIA1 | 31 Jan 2012 10:31 a.m. PST |
Cheers guys.
Thanks for your intrest and comments.
Cooper…I couldn't have said it better. Thanks. saludetes |

Looks good to me….very nice figure and good paint job! |

Great figure. Don't trust photos as they often trick the eyes. Can't wait to see the rest. You're tempting me to start sculpting figures for some South American wars. ;D |

Hello, Ged.
How long until the Villistas are out?
Will Mexican soldiers be far behind?
They have been a long time coming, it was over a year ago this range was first announced. |
| Olive Rudge | 01 Nov 2012 11:31 a.m. PST |
You are a very naughty boy, dearest Che.
Arthur at last has everything in working order.
His BSA is a picture to behold.
I am looking forward to my promised
Christmas hamper full of delights. What dashing delights do you have in store for me?
You are awrfull but l like you. |
| Redoran | 01 Nov 2012 1:20 p.m. PST |
What is a BSA? I *was* looking forward to this range.
I was absolutely delighted when I heard the initial plans for the range, especially for the US intervention.
When Ged announced he was going to be starting two ranges for the Maximillian Adventure and the Mexican Revolution I thought he was spreading himself thin. Since then we've also seen the Franco-Prussian War, the Alamo and a bloody sci-fi range thrown into the mix as well.
Each of which has seen one release, while the Revolution has only seen two. What's the Spanish for 'messing around'? I was excited, I was enthusiastic, now I'm just  ed off! |
| jammy four | 04 Nov 2012 11:39 p.m. PST |
Redoran appreciate your feedback and yes you have a valid point… and as you can see i have greatly expanded the Maximillian range and am now working on the Mexican Adventure…..as a one man band you cant please all the folks all the time but all ranges will be completed, 6 new Mexican villastas out this month others being worked on…as for the Sci Fi..well what can i say! i prefer a bit of honesty and yep Mexican Revolution will be completed. Viva Mexico!! regards Ged gringo40s.com
