Kilometers traveled twenty two thousand and two.

Hi everyone!
Thanks Kat for your message, i keep it in mind :)
We are in Egypt now, after 19 000 km done :)
Our travel website is not updated, but the drawing one is :)
Here is the stuff i did in Tanzania, Kenya and Ouganda.
In few days we ll add South Soudan, North soudan and Egypt work :)
"Put blues in the shadows." ... a phrase a lot of painters would say at least twice every time we sat down to do some sketching / painting. Its a phrase that applies
in mini and water color :)))))
My mother sent me last week 2 new recharge of dark blue to finish my trip :)
Hope you ll enjoy them !
In 2 month i'll be at home, and repaint and sculpt minis again :))))))
Enjoy life!

really impressive work. I especially like the ostrich :) It really captures that kinda "huh? what?" expression they always seem to have :)

Excellent work. I love the watercolour portraits.
These pictures are far better than photos as they are images you made.

Hello to you, proud adventurer of the brush!

Quit hiding behind your keyboard and your paints, we saw you!...
Let me guess...

Your brush pulls a long face? Your paint dried during summer?

It is time to take good resolutions, and to start stocking resin before winter.

And the good news is : this week we release no less than 7 new miniatures on FIGONE : 2 from Miniature Factory, 4 from Agora Miniatures, and a bust by Benoit Cauchies !

http://www.figone.fr/en/

Attentionate observers will have noted that all shipping fees have been reduced almost by half, worldwide !

I still must apologize for not being able to mail your packages more often than every 10 days.
I have no car, I don't live any more in the center of Lyon, but several miles away from the closest post office : I have to optimize the shippings and fill my bike's trailer before I go...
But then that leaves me with more time to sculpt and paint miniatures. And who would complain about that ?????

Furthermore, I'll have to be away this week to the countryside, to finish all the drawings and book about the diary of our cyclo-African trip.

The next shipping will thus be made on September 17th.

About "figostages" and shows where you shall see my sweet little face, the information is on my personal website http://www.jeremiebt.com/index.php?page=siteuk

It will be updated in the course of September with the latest painted miniatures I made
I'll have to leave you now, I have much work to do !

PS: think about subscribing to the newsletter, the RSS feed, and Facebook, and Twitter …

Jeremie: I have to admit, you have inspired me. Looking at all of your journey to Africa, I think I need to do this now. Time to start planning for a year from now.

Thanks for your nice message, its was a very nice journey ;)
The book is available on www.figone.fr

Before I tell you about the new FIGONE releases, here are the news :

- The timetable for Figostages is full until this summer. I have no more free slots so if you want to arrange one for the second half of the year, please contact me before it is too late ;) Those dates which are already scheduled can be found on the home page of my site at www.jeremiebt.com.

- 23 & 24 February, The Lyon expo/competition Lugdunum takes place. We’ve got into the habit of organizing a big LUGDU-FEST house party where everyone is invited. So if you want to come and celebrate, bring as much food and drink as you need for the evening. Remember to bring your best feather duvet and your floor mat with the fewest holes if you want to sleep over. If you want to come on Friday, let me know in advance (no need for Saturday, I will give directions on how to get there at the show).

- Regarding shipping of FIGONE orders. A premature rupture of stock and a misplaced package mean that orders placed in December / January for Origen figures will be sent on January 28.

- The second installment of the DVD that covers freehand and wet blending is being finalized. Subtitles in 5 languages are nearing completion, the videos are edited and spliced, and the graphics are underway ...We hope to release it at the Lugdunum show at end of February.

- Do you know the webzine FanFig?
http://www.atorgael.com/fanfig/
The next opus is in production, so if you want to embellish the "readers’ gallery" with your own work, contact me privately.

- Finally, FIGONE still growing along with its catalog.
I’ve sculpted and painted the little "Lefago Warrior" for the range while the addition of the Spanish Scale 75 catalogue enriches the site with 14 beautiful, new references.

dscn6040.jpg


-Very soon, the full ALKEMY catalog will be available in individual resin miniatures, and goodies such as lights, brushes and sculpting tools will make their way into the catalog.

- Since I’m far away from home on my winter getaways, the next shipment will be January 28, February 7, February 22 and March 4.

- I still hope to update my website with my paintings from the last 6 months soon. Be patient ...

According to the French tradition, we still have a few days left for well wishing, so voila, I wish each and everyone of you individually and collectively, my best wishes and especially warm hands to warm up your cold buttocks this winter.

Hello, miniatures addicts,
We're working at quite a blistering pace at Figone!
I just finished to upload a new teaser about the brand new DVD coming out soon. This should get you to crave for watching it ;)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo4pWAx7kf4
Since I need to give an advance for the production this week, for then having shipping in February, note that pre-orders have already started. This really helps us not having to go into some crazy Indigogo or Quickstarter extensions.
www.figone.fr
I finally updated my personal website with two versions of a Minotaur, on which I use the wet-blending technique I'm describing in the DVD.
img511283033d9ee.jpg

img511281d5eb686.jpg

The catalog of Figone's accessories gets bigger with the addition of light bulbs, brushes, sculpting stick tools, various glues, silicon shapers/ brushers and gluing speed-ups.

Since the production of the DVD is quite expensive, I added a list of miniatures I'm selling, including the two minotaurs I'm talking about above.
www.jeremiebt.com
More news are coming some time in Februray.
All right, need to go, I have a horsie and a lad with bells waiting for me on my desk. This will all be revealed in April ;)
Miniaturely yours,
Jeremie

Jeremie;
Due to the amount of pictures on this thread and the time its taking to load them I've taken the liberty of breaking it into two.
The newer thread is called Figone is Alive!!!!! (Partie deux.)
This will allow us to continue enjoy your work without problems.

En raison de la quantité de photos sur ceci fil et le temps sa prise pour les charger j'ai pris la liberté de la diviser en deux.
Le fil plus nouveau s'appelle Figone is Alive!!!!! (Partie deux.)
Ceci nous permettra de continuer apprécient votre travail sans problèmes.
