Hand painted in Cornwall
George
Kearton is one of the United Kingdom’s foremost experts on toy and model
soldiers and is the author of the groundbreaking “Collector’s Guide to Plastic
Toy Soldiers 1947 - 1987” which has been reprinted and is available now
from
Amazon.co.uk
here, Amazon.com
here and Amazon.es
here. If you live outside of these areas a quick search on the
relevant Amazon site for your country should find the book for you to purchase.
Please note that
Amazon often give good discounts and at the time of writing a saving can be made
of £1.50 on the Recommended Retail Price.
By popular demand, George is now offering a
model soldier painting service. So, if you do not paint your own figures (maybe you
just haven’t
the time or even the inclination to paint them yourself),
then this expert help could be
the way to expand your collection of painted items.
For example, 54mm toy
soldiers (Armies in Plastic, Airfix, Call To Arms, Italeri etc.,) can be hand
painted from as little as £3.00 each. As this is an individual service and each
request will be so different, please email George in the first instance. Your
requirements, cost and delivery time can then be discussed to mutual satisfaction.
A customer recently emailed George and said:-
"Thanks very much for
painting the knight, which arrived today, in the uniform of the Order of St
Lazarus. It looks splendid".
As an example of his work, George transformed
three Halloween figures. Here is a view of the painting in
progress.
(Move your mouse over an image to stop the show so that you
may more easily compare).
