Hi Taesung
I have a few of your "modern" figures and like them a lot even if i generally prefer create or convert mine using plastic figures!
Just to say , as i did to other figures companies, there's perhaps a market for seperates boots sets!
I'm looking for vietnam and modern boots sets but i could be interresting to have WW2 US army and marines boots sets!
Heads sets are very attractives for modellers like me who likes using plastic figures BUT better boots are a great need!
So, perhaps you could try this market!
Regards
Stéphane

Taesung, I appreciate the "peek behind the curtain" as to why you are sculpting mostly static figures. Since that is a commercial and personal decision, I respect that and will be more understanding in my comments in the future. Your figures are so well-done, I guess I was hoping to see that level of detail and skill in other types of figures. But as Ken has pointed out, to each his own.
And Ken, it's not necessary to buy the whole set of Stalingrad figures. You can mix and match.

Hi Bill
Please continue to post comments as you have. Many Alpine figures were realized from the comments by modelers.
Since I started to post Alpine news here back in 2004, you and other Armorama members always have been fair and honest…. never offensive or condescending in tone. And I always appreciated it.
Cheers
Taesung

Taesung, you are both a master sculptor and a real gentleman. I would love to see some of your work in a more "action-oriented" situation, and will bide my time until that happens.

Bill,
I'm no master at sculpting. I'm just a guy making figures in a small workshop.
I do plan to make another running fig set this year. Will see.
