No stranger to our Figure of the Week, here is Olaf Wunder of Hamburg, Germany again with some fantastic Elastolin conversions:
“...I made by myself out of old damaged Elastolin figures. I am little bit proud of it.
....First one: General Custer on horseback with rapier. I used a damaged figure "cowboy with lasso" [pictured below] and I have changed hat and arms, put him a rapier in his right hand. Finally I painted him as a US-General of 19th century. He is riding a Lineol horse which is original.
....Second: his "enemy". For this indian I used two damaged Elastolin indian figures. In his hand a booty-US-flag (29 stars). Notice the horse: It is an old Elastolin horse, but I have changed the posture and it has got a new saddle. I think it looks very dynamic. Off course the painting is handmade by me.
....If any collector is interesting in my work, [here is] my email address: olafwunder@aol.com”
These are great figures, and we even have one more but that will have to wait for another time. Thanks again Olaf!
