Euro Militaire model
figure and Military show in Folkestone finished a week ago now – and it seems
fitting after a week of images from the show to give you the winner - Best of
Show Euro Militaire 2011– was this figure of the, Napoleonic vignette by
Antonio Zapatero and Gustavo Gil called “Valeur et Discipline”
Seeing it with my own eyes I can confirm this was truly one
of those figures that pictures cannot do justice - it was truly a deserved
winner and congratulations to Antonio and Gustavo for their excellent work!
I thought it was fitting as well to mention this rag-tag
bunch of guys (above) I met in the flesh for the first time – led by Pietro
Balloni (centre) who invites some of us lucky punters to a “Tuscan Summer”
meeting on the Leas outside – anyone who was there pretty much knows it was an “English
Summer” meeting instead – not to worry it was a great time to be had by all –
When Pietro and his team weren’t doing this they were very very hard at work at
their stand downstairs – they were really in vogue as you could see many Pegaso
figures down on the judging tables – and judging by the finished products they
are winners as well
On to the last of the Photo Galleries of the event – this part
encasing some of the most amazing figure work I have seen in the flesh –
congratulations to all there – it was a lovely event I urge you all to see if
you get a chance next time. Other parts of this gallery are to be found at the shortcuts below
