My collection of open-book birds 2019 /2022/2023/2024

Big congrats, especially for the crested shelduck

Thank you Bonnie and Andréas
the white-tailed sea eagle was also on my wish list for years Andréas it is a beautiful figure,
I think Safari Ltd. it is inspired by the pose to make the hawk!
The king fischer set is quite small indeed, it is perched on a branch all on a capsule, but remains pleasant.
I also had a lot of the kingfisher on the capsule but I had to stick the fish in its beak
I will post images soon.

Phantastic

Amazing again, your layout is so good and I love how you have made all the species with each of their unique characteristics!

My dear friends, I share with you my enthusiasm when I discovered at: modellpferdeversand.de/Figurines that new Papo were already available for sale; I immediately ordered my last wishes online!
Here they are at home and in front of the lens
The magnificent heron and the emu and his chick!
I will soon post other images of this trio, with comparisons.
They all have bases, but they remain quite discreet; Plastic is visibly harder and stronger. I also like the less glossy matte paint, which I did not appreciate on certain figures. Finally congratulations to the sculptor and the new birds of Papo.
I am now looking forward to the red throat I think a nice surprise again.

Good news :)

Wow- this is such good news, new Papo is on the way!
These three look beautiful, so realistic, it's wonderful that Papo are making these new bird species!
I am especially excited for the Robin- I love these birds and I'm surprised that no other major brands have made one!

Oh that kingfisher is adorable! Wonderful really, each anx every one!

Beautiful eagle,shelduck and kingfisher!

Thanks a lot my friends !
The kingfisher is beautiful but very fragile and tiny on this branch, I had broken my first!

Congrats for these beautiful asiatic and "french" birds!

Impatient to see your painted calaos! ..

Thanks Alain!
CalaO painted just started!
Here is the Sulu who is on the operating table -----
Shades of gray and black difficult to give relief.
Here it is on the drying table to come back on it for the shine of the eyes and rectify some details .......

Here is my collection of Calaos;
It consists of three old figurines, 15 new and by the end of the year probably two new species are planned.
Or an aviary of 20 species of Bucorvidae and Bucerotidae, they will be well represented
