Verlinden WW2 US Army Medic
I picked this up for a reasonable price, thinking it would make a useful addition to accompany Rob's ambulance on our battlefield.

Re: Verlinden WW2 US Army Medic
I have loved Francois Verlinden's figures since the 1970s, when he was "just" an amateur making 54mm Napoleonic figures. He is a real artist. It is a shame that when he retired and his company shut down that all the moulds were destroyed, though I can understand his reasoning. What is available now is all there will ever be. Sadly, this has been reflected in the prices that some are selling for.

I also used to admire his work, especially in the armour Builds he did.silversurfer1947 wrote:I have loved Francois Verlinden's figures since the 1970s, when he was "just" an amateur making 54mm Napoleonic figures.

Your medic is a great example of the living soldier he is famous for and you have executed hthe image really well.
