Happy Monk - scoring and image

Images - top, the lower half of the figure, the foot, branch, drinking gourd, and 2 x resin runners with flowers and butterflies. Next, upper and lower torso of the monk. There are pour stubs on the belly, underside of the sleeve and top of the raised knee. The figures in the bags, to ensure against loss. The bagged parts in the plastic clam shell box.

The Review.

The figure I first saw on the Planet Figure sculpting forums, and it caught my eye as different and novel.

I sent a private message to Ernst, and arranged for a copy, and paid through pay pal.

Ease of ordering, 2, secure payment, 3 mark. total, 5.

IT arrived approximately 2 & 1/2 weeks later. quite acceptable, Europe to Australia. Well packed in a padded bag (the type lined with bubble wrap). Additional 2 marks.

Total 7 so far.

Packaging and security.

See above photos - for a smaller scale figure (well, smaller for me) the clam shell style plastic box kept everything together, and resisted delivery bruising very well. Sealed bags kept everything together. 2 marks for packaging, 2 marks for security (bagged and taped shut)

Instructions and images - I am torn on marking this down, as a smaller figure, these are uncommon. But I have seen (& purchased) other figures that have a least one picture on the front of a completed, painted figure. So had to mark down the three points for that. Tank line of figures spring to mind, as that company has images on the boxes.

Still on 7.

Next post, casting score card.
