The figure is Looking really great Kostis. :thumbup:
The character is so well known the world over that one can well imagine what he is thinking or indeed saying. I was thinking ;-) which is very dangerous for me,that I might buy some of those iron railings myself. Greetings BB

Very good realisation, thanks for sharing! :yeah:

The figure strongly reminds me of the wonderful & unforgotten Peter Cushing.
He was & still is my favorite Sherlock, followed by the just as awesome Basil Rathbone and Benedict Cumberbatchs admittedly pretty good reinterpretation.

Peter Cushing (1913-1994) & André Morell (1909-1978)

Basil Rathbone (1892-1967) & Nigel Bruce (1895-1953)

"Watson! The game is afoot".

That's a wonderful Sherlock. Well done Kostis and Carlos of course.

Sorry I didn't see this topic cause I was in a travel a week before. You are right Erich the figure was inspired in Basil Rathbone. :yeah:
Watson was inbspired in Jude Law.
Kostis, how, in the name of all the gods of modeling, how have you painted the lines of Sherlock's jacket? :shock: :shock:

decals again?
but ... on those irregular surfaces ... and with such small spaces,
What the hell, I can hardly put a decal on a flat fender of a truck.
OK, leave it, it's not the technique, it's the art. I told you that you're a master.
