Aztec Warrior Mexia Captain 1519
Aztec Warrior Mexia Captain 1519
1/10 scale bust sculpted by Pablo Ronda
for United Empire Miniatures. I painted this
bust with acrylics and oils also printers inks.
My photos will be used for the box art.The umbrella shaped
head dress was worn by the captain in battle, so his warriors could see the
head dress (banner) and rally around him. It was mounted on his back by means of a wooden rack.
He wore a cotton suit covered in feathers.

1/9 scale resin bust produced by www.unitedempireminiatures.com
This was a year long project for me and I am happy to be finished and have the results I was looking for. I converted this bust to a Triballi Tribe by sculpting in a cowhide texture on the Phrygian
cap and on the shield.( I used green stuff)Then I was able to paint the cowhide fur. I also painted the cloth earth tones.

Yugoslav People’s Liberation Army Partisan 1945
He has a captured German MG 42 machine gun slung over his left shoulder
and plenty of ammunition.This was a great bust to paint German shirt, Yugoslav
Army cap and nearly 200 bullets. The red flag sticking from the barrel of the
machine gun was earned by the machine gunner.It reads:
NAJBOLJI MI TRALJEZAC
II BATALJUNU
PRVOMAJ. TAKMICENJE
It means:
Best machine gunner
II battalion
1.May competition.
I painted this bust for the www.unitedempireminiatures.com box art. Painted with acrylic's.
