3 Real Madrid Legends...

I thought I'd plough on with the posts, and use my alphabetical order system when I can't be bothered to think of any kind of theme!

If you are wondering about the ellipsis after 'legends' in the title, you'll understand half way through the post...

Roberto Carlos can, I dare say, be classed as a Real legend. He was a galactico, anyway! I remember that, when I did this one, I was most pleased with the paw prints on the sleeves. Though I still have no idea why there were pawprints down the sleeves.

Here he is; one of the most bizarre signings Real ever made! But who was a more random recruit; Gravesen or Faubert?! Answers in the comments!

Anyway, I ended up with this microstar, and thought if I painted it into Madrid kit, someone might buy it on ebay, for novelty value if nothing else. 

No one did.

 Last but not least, a far more recent repaint of McManaman, Champions League final kit. Lovely!

3 Real Madrid Champions League winners

One of my regulars has an ongoing project of getting a key player from the winners of every Champions League final done, in the right kit.

Here are a few Real Madrid ones that now nestle happily in his collection!

 Being as I don't know the years of the shirts, and haven't got the inclination to check, I've put them up in number order!

Some of you may be thinking: "Hang on; these players were never made by Corinthian!", and you'd be right! These are all remodels, using Kodoto figure heads, tho I didn't do the remodelling myself- they arrived with me like this!

In a time when I'm really struggling to keep up with all my requests, a few plain kits with just a bit of trim round the collar, cuffs etc was just what the doctor ordered!

These do have some extra details, tho you can't see them all on the pics. All have the appropriate Champions League sleeve patches, and you can see the club world champions shield on a couple of them! I think they have a different logo on the opposite sleeve too, tho I can't remember what it is!

Real Madrid number 7s

Today feels like a good day to add a couple of Real Madrid number 7s!

These 2 certainly raise the bar a bit from my only previous Real microstar, which was Thomas Gravesen!!

Real Madrid Icons

A quick post, before I go to bed!

2 massive talismanic figures in the history of Real Madrid!

I really like the Di Stefano one- while it's one of the simplest repaints I've done, it's another case of a simple one being extremely effective... in my eyes at leasr!

And Ronaldo as well!

Redondo, Real

I always like to receive confirmation that figures have arrived before I put the pictures here (or on my Facbeook page) just in case there are any problems, anything that needs to be sorted out etc.

Today, I found out that a parcel I sent has finally arrived in Argentina, so now, I can post the pictures of some absolute beauties!!

Let's start with Redondo!

Two Real Madrid repaints. I was delighted with these- absolutely love the number font, and the full kit definitely takes me back to my childhood; unless I am mistaken, it's the black kit in which Redondo danced around the Man United defence at Old Trafford in the Champions League!

Solid start from the box that went to Argentina... plenty more rare repaints to come! Including clubs and figures that I had never painted before!

Excited to share them with you!

McManaman, Real Madrid

Here's a repaint that I just fancied doing (and thought I might be able to sell to someone!) when I looked through my box of spares.

I think it was something to do with licensing that meant few, if any, Real Madrid figures were done.

This is my first Real repaint, anyway.

If you want it, get in contact!

If you want it but aren't so bold, keep your eyes on ebay in the next few weeks!
