    Wizard by Black Crow

    This is a really excellent bust - I wish I could sculpt this well!!!

    painted in Vallejo acrylic paints.

    The led is inside a plastic bead with the cable going down the staff, through the body and down the brass rod into the base where the battery is.

        Excellent, Peter. The staff lit up really sets off the figure.

              Awesome!
              The inventiveness of the sculpt (placing the owl under his hat brim like that is genius) is only matched by your creativity with the staff - Bravo!

                  Thanks guys

                  this is one of those models which I could not fault, the composition, sculpting, casting and the way the parts are split - all just right!

                  This is where I bought the light: https://www.smallscalelights.co.uk/
