First Nyala painted

The first painted female Nyala antelope - 39 more to go - I started five at once actually.  Just need to add details on the other four, but had to finish one completely for some photos!









And here is my friend's male Nyala, made in the same scale:

Nyala female antelope copies...

So here they are!  They need to be prepared before I can start painting, which is called fettling, this is getting rid of mould lines and any extra bits that shouldn't be there.
There are still a few copies available, so please contact me if you'd like to order one.
Here is the pair, photo taken by Anna Dobrowolska-Oczko, with the Male Nyala she made on the right:

Siberian Tiger 1:30 scale

Latest commission, modelled in 1:30 scale, a Siberian Tiger - in real life these big cats measure an amazing 48" at the shoulder - this guy was based on a Tiger called Altai, a former resident of Cologne Zoo.


 Below is a comparison with a Britains tiger which is 1:32 scale

1:2 scale Rabbit

One of my most recent commissions - 'Robert' the Rabbit (not Roger Rabbit!) made in 1:2 scale, so quite a big guy!






Another commission completed - that's a good feeling:)  On to the next!

Nyala Project: update

You'll be pleased to hear that the female Nyala is now sculpted and ready for mould and casting work!
I want to post a photo of the unpainted model, but will save it till she is painted.
