Hi !
It's not an orc, it's not a girl with big boobs, it's not a super hero !
It was a real person (who has existed in the real life) !
His name is Álvaro de Bazán ! Yes ! you are not dreaming ! Álvaro de Bazán himself !
If you want to know who he was and what he did, google is your friend.
There is a statue of him in a lovely place in Madrid
The very talented Antonio Zapatero made a figure of the statue (much simpler to paint than the statue itself)
I bought it in the Leganés show in march.
I didn't paint it with non metallic technics, I didn't paint it with complicated OSL.
I painted it with a brush, with acrylics, with coffe and music and it was a very cool time.
Muchas gracias por esa figura que se puede comprar en el sitio web de la asociacion Alabarda
... and as I know Álvaro de Bazán didn't kill any orcs during is military carreer ...
(well ... for this specific point I have to check more seriously ...)
