Grandpa's Little Ballerina

[Brian]

And the gold? this lovely painted figure      

[Nicholas Ball]

To be fair to the Judges    it appeared to be Grandpa's hair that really  let it down.

I have since revised it and I think it is a vast improvement,  so as I said to the Judge at the time, I agreed with the Silver, good call

 ---- Then I said Bast**d

Yes Mark, dyslexia is my middle name!!!    Sorry bout that, hope I haven't confused too many.

It's a lovely figure, highly recommended.

It is really stunning work Nick - more impressive to me based on the sheer size as well, tough to hide things on a figure of that size.

P.S. Might this be Jupiter Miniatures rather than Juniper? 

[Nicholas Ball]

Thank you all for the kind complements.

Glen it is 110mm from Benedict of Junipur miniatures. All  painted in water mixable oils.

I paint in layers, wet onto dry and blend as I go.

Wow! Well done! Lots of little things to see here - the faces, hair, the reflection in the glasses, the stripes on the pants and leggings, the texture of the knit sweaters. Oils or acrylics? What scale (I have the impression from Wolfgang that it's 30mm)?

Very beautiful!
I love these small stories, but especially in 30 mm ...
