Buffalo Bill Cody.

 


I have finally got the 54mm Buffalo Bill figure done and rather splendid he is , whoever sculpted him did a good job of catching a likeness of the great man , here we see him posing on a rock outcrop overlooking the Great Patio .



Another photo has been drawn to my attention I believe it's from the period of 'The Great Patio War' as several of the people in it appear in other pictures of this era . The are I believe- a) H G Wells, b) a lady who is definately not Mrs Wells, c) Lincoln Logge, d) Buffalo Bill Cody, e) Kipling . Im assuming the photographer to be Mathew Brady Jr but there is no markings on it to identify the date,place or photographer .I must thank the University of Felpersham (Borsetshire) for the photo.

  2. Beautiful painting and setting for your Buffalo Bill! Tony, you have really done a marvelous job on both counts! I always love to see your "period photos" and this one is a gem! H G always has his latest lady friend with him, we wouldn't want him to grow lonely!!

  3. Very nice details, the gloves and bit of color on the cheeks in particular. Excellent brushwork really brings this individual stand out as a personality!
