These  paintings are remarkably good, for their lights, details , shadows, epresions, quality of pinting of the horses, "life"..
Yes, Eric, you are now a serious and definite competitor of Doukchkine, and I start using your paitings re enlarged models for paintings 30 mm flats, as they are so rich of good details expresed in the bible guidelines of Mike, Walter F. Greg DF, and several others (Gianfranco, Stephane, ...)
Congratulations, because you are adding life,  ;D where many other are static.
The two 'schools' are equally defendable, but give a different approach and feeling on looking at them.

Interesting figures and very nice paintwork.
Considering the number of the figures (see in you first mail, below) and your expectation of quality, huge work is ahead of you...

Thanks for sharing the painted figures.

Typical Mars figures, they have their one style.

I m really suprised, what a lot of different types belonging to the series... nice groups.

Beautiful art Eric, don't really care if these are historically acurate, they are legendary and ooze excitment. the reality would probably be much more boring... :-\

These look really nice Eric. I don't think the accuracy of the costumes matters that much on classic sets like this.

Dear Eric,


very nice ! The Mars ethnographical set have a great charme even though being more "toy-like" than usual figures.


I managed to get the Indians and the Vikings since Kulmbach which are great, too.


Best regards
