Waterreus, Man City

Quite a rare figure, this one.

My Man City regular said it was pretty difficult to get hold of. Still, well worth it for his 2 League cup appearances for them!!

Straightforward repaint, but note the boots!

Speed, Leeds Vivid Imaginations Figures

I already posted some pics of early '90s Leeds figures... well there are plenty more where they came from!

Here are 2 I was asked to do as Gary Speed.

(Click to enlarge)

This first one was a bit different. This is the tracksuit top Leeds had for the 1991-92 season, and also what they were wearing when presented with the trophy at the end of the season. 

I was very pleased with how it came out, in terms of both the detail, and the fact that I had to do a minor remodel, as the original figure was short sleeved.

 I've got to say, I was even more delighted with this one! A shirt that I think of as "One of the nicest ugly shirts we've ever had"!

Obviously there was plenty of intricate details to add, and I think this makes it one of the best I've done!

The guy who bought it was very pleased too! A fitting tribute to a shirt that we won 2 games in!!

Shay Given, Celtic

A bit of evidence that my regular Celtic customer is becoming as obsessed as I am (with my Leeds collection, at least!)

Here is Shay Given, who never made a first team appearance at Celtic!

I enjoyed this kit: a decent challenge! And I was happy with how it ended up.

Shay's lack of first team appearances at Celtic are the reason for the 13 shirt, and no name on it!

Given himself liked this repaint enough to like a picture of it on Twitter!

Di Canio, Celtic

So... it's been over a month since I last posted... I'm a teacher again!

Without further ado, here's a repaint that I think looks great!

I felt the lines were crisp and neat, and the sponsor and logo just look bang on! 

I also did the trademark white boots!

This is the second Celtic Di Canio I've done. The first, in an away kit can be found here.

Another point of interest, I also made a youtube video about painting this one, sort of tutorialish, at the request of the buyer who fancied a go at painting a figure himself afterwards.
