I love those old Atlantic figures. Is the shepherdess missing part of her hand?

Really nice work again! I see you have the same problem as me with the mould marks on the figures! ;-) :thumbup:

Figure was one part of a group, that's the problem.

I thought perhaps her missing left hand was part of the story. Maybe a legend from Greek Antiquity with which I was not familiar.

Do you use contrast paints? The result you have achieved here is very nice.

hello
first thank you for the praise
I must have had the atlantic for 30 years now
and I don't think I washed it off with degreaser before painting it, I was probably too lazy
but otherwise I do that almost always
maybe that's why the stains ,,,, :oops: :drool:

Wow ...!
I bought the Atlantic Greeks around 1973 or so ... I still have them but I've never painted any ...
They’re not the most accurate miniatures ever made, but when it comes to beauty and sculpting they can compete with any other. Even surpassing most of the current ones.
Nicely thought dio and painting.
Congratulations!

Great scene! and I think you have got the very, very best out of those old Atlantic figures, they look far more sophisticated than I gave them credit for. :thumbup:

The old Atlantic Greeks are plenty detailed enough to shine given a top class paint job as tullo has done here.

But I need to know what metals he has used. The armor looks spectacular! If you have already typed it elsewhere and I forgot, apologies.
