River Plate x3

 Sorry everyone; slipped out of the blogging habit for a bit there!

Here are a few slightly more exotic figures to brighten a rainy day:

Three River Plate players, in their very distinctive kit. I did these quite a while back now, but, in quite a rare occurrence when it comes to figures I did over 2 years ago, I can't see anything that I'm overly unhappy with!!

Funes Mori is a 'lookalike', of course.

The other 2 are players that I admired a lot in my youth; Ortega pretty much cos of an ad campaign, and Aimar cos of Pro Evo...

Riquelme, Boca

Valencia last time, Boca this; It's all getting quite exotic around here, isn't it?!

Anyway, here's Riquelme:

I enjoyed both of these! The main challenge was getting the number and names the right size for the back, considering the portion of the shirt they had to fill... to be honest, it was so long ago that I can't remember how I did it!!

Anyway, I love how they look even now!

First blog post since it was announced that schools are closing. Will I become more prolific in the coming days and weeks?! I wouldn't bet on it, to be honest, but you never know!

Pele, Santos

Sometimes, pictures speak for themselves.

Simple.

Beautiful.

Benedetto, Boca Juniors

It's late, and I'm tired... but I'm also conscious that I haven't done a blog post for a few days.

Here's a contemporary Boca Juniors repaint:

This one made use of a lookalike figure, to produce Boca Juniors' talismanic forward Pipo Benedetto.

I'm always a fan of adding a beard!

And now I'm going to bed!

River Plate Microstars

There's been a surge in orders for figures in South American club kits recently.

I think it's because I had one guy order quite a few, and then other people come across them, and think they'd like one for themselves!!

Here are my first 3 River Plate Microstars:

If you're interested in South American football, keep your eye on the blog, and my other social media pages!

Many more to come, including Santos, Boca, Estudiantes and the Argentina national team!
