These figures are from Artizan, and are lovely sculpts. I painted them about 10-15 years ago, but never finished the bases. I have aspirations of doing a vignette around a grave, like the climax of The good, the bad and the ugly.

After diving into Sergio Leone's films I bought a CD of Morricone's classics; it is great music and I'm listening to it again now. Vale!
I've been neglecting the blog a bit recently. I have plenty of projects on the go, but I don't like doing work-in-progress posts. Regular posting will resume imminently!
Wonderful figures Barks, well done!
ReplyDeleteI watched the Good, the Bad and the Ugly the night I heard the news.
BTW those figures would be great in a game of a Dead Mans Hand, I can give you my address to send them over I'll return them after 😄😳😄!
Bring your scenery Down Under and we'll have a shoot-out!
DeleteHaha already 'Down Under' residing in sunny Adelaide!
Delete😀
I may be traveling to Adelaide later this year...
DeleteComing over, for work or pleasure? If you have time for a catchup it'd be cool!
DeletePleasure. I'll get in touch when I know dates etc.
DeleteI was gutted when I heard the news.
ReplyDeleteAmen, brother.
DeleteWhat a fantastic post! I was saddened by the news, his music certainly had a haunting beauty and depth and really helped define a genre. Even now when we watch The Mandalorian, those films and their scores can be seen as influences.
ReplyDeleteI’m hoping to start watching the Mandalorian tomorrow, I shall pay attention to the score.
DeleteYou’re right; he helped define the genre.
Crackin' work Barks. I watched the film once again after hearing of his death. The music makes the film.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ray, I agree it is superb.
