I think it's better MUISCA and not MUSICA

Fantastic Ged! Those I truly love! I've been to the gold museum in Bogotá, so I've seen some of their fantastic artifacts. I think I might just need some of those.

I should point out though that they are Colombian as opposed to Columbian, unless of course they've emigrated to Washington DC. :)

Carlos

really pleased you like these as in my mind you were part
of the "acid test" to see if they passed muster along with
some other learned site members. thanks for the correction :D

there will be loads more ...and equipment!! :o

Hopefully you'll do a version of the iconic raft. I was tempted by the replica in the Gold Museum's gift shop but it was bloody expensive.

I'm sure I will. Now to invest in a large spray can of gold paint, set up a stall outside the museum and make a motza. :D

By the by I have a few grainy camera photos of some of the gold body ornaments. Pectorals, head dress that sort of thing, if you are interested. PM me and I'll email what I can find. It's bloody dark in that museum, in part because it's really an enlarged bank vault with the sort of doors you see on heist and Bond films.

Your are welcome Ged....with a lot of fighting poses for your Colombian indians.

Hope to see a comparison scale with other manufacturers to see they can be mixable....i have Coppelstone Tupi and Foundry - TAG Conquistador.

Here you go then Ged, you silver-tongued old blagger you...  ;)

Actually, he was a pleasure to paint (yes, even painting his pleasure!)
