Excellent Figures by 'Alpine'

Not talked about much I suppose but figure painting (to me) is an art by itself. As we all know, a good figure can be the icing on the cake for a vehicle model. They can be used to tell a story or make a point. At the very least, they lend a sense of scale and size to a vehicle. To my mind, the figures available today are far, far better than they used to be but natural, fluid figures are still few and far between. However, there are some excellent figures available and 'Alpine' from the US make exceptional examples. Here's the single set I own. They're all resin figures, come with a choice of heads for each one and assembly consists of attaching arms and head. That's it. It's a shame my photography can't show better detail as these are beautifully sculpted and moulded.
