Hi all
Here is a figure engraved by Vladimir Nuzdin from a water color by Ricciardo Meacci, a pre-raphaeliste painter of the XIXth century
It is a 50mm scale, total height 90mm, marvelously engraved
I show the original painting, the bare metal figure, and three interpretations of my own
I first painted the red one, then the blue one, at last the brown one which is the nearest from the original
That was a kind of challenge to paint these in less than 10 days (I got them in Lunéville from Brian), but the quality is such that I felt it really easy and a great pleasure
I will start a step by step in a faew days in the Workbench
