Street Corner project (Project finished!)
« on: 10 March 2011, 04:52:29 PM »
After finishing my tramp steamer crew, I have embarked on finishing my self-named "Street Corner" project (started last month). I'm calling it "Street Corner" because I'm building just enough terrain and painting just enough figures to fit on a street corner. (The steamer crew and some of my copplestone boxers ((seen below)) are spin-offs of this project.) I just finished the swell dolls last night.

The terrain here is all scratch-built. All the figures are Copplestone.

When I was a boy way back in the 50s, T.V. was a showcase for all the great movies of the 30s. Your FINE WORK brings all those moments glued in front of the set watching Jimmy Cagney, John Garfield, & a host of other actors & actresses back to life in miniature. INSPIRING STUFF!

Great painting.  Your flesh especially reminds me of Michi's work, which I also very much admire.

Great photos, miniatures and scenery - I especially like the newsstand! Did you scrounge the pulp covers, newspapers and such off the web and print them at the right size?

The flappers are great too. I need to get more civilian ladies for my pulp games, have lots of gents but not enough ladies...

Yet more gorgeousness. Do stop it  ;)
I still haven't recovered from your handmade caveman tents and mammoth skellies, and that was about 2 years ago.
You are a talented and inspiring fellow EC  :)

This is vicious! I thought I'd done a decent job painting those miniatures. I'm not that sure anymore. I love your style, man!

Less cartoony than Michi to be honest, which add's to the realism. Lovely minis, lovely scenery and great scene, looking forward to more.
