 And a big thank to fairy  Yvette who sent me these two wonderful Lineol figures at a very gift price!

You did splendid, great job Alain!

Receive my heartfelt congratulations to you on your incredible ability to restore the enchanted monuments sent by the generous fairy.
I love the fact you restore your figures in a very respectful way and they do not miss their identity neither their value as vintage collectible pieces.
The modern masterpieces are just accurate, these are magical!

Yvette is a great lady and Alain has done a marvellous job of restoration. I love this kind of rescue.  

wonderful restorations Alain! such splendid models! Classics!
how super of Yvette to release these to your collection

Many thanks to you all Andreas, Paige, Rogério, Christophe and Annette for your nice comments!

Great restorations, they look like they have never been broken. I am always amazed how well you manage to match the colour of the paint to the original.

Thank you Roger!

Beautiful figures and wonderfully restored, I would never have guessed they weren't completely original. I love the gemsbok especially.

Thank you Jill!

Great! Did some myself some years ago and posted it somewhere on sts.
I have a damaged Lineol sealion you could restore if you want.

This is a successful and truly impressive restoration, Alain.
The skill here is in bringing back the original look of the animal figures after restoration, making it hard to tell they've been worked on. You've done a fantastic job restoring the authenticity of these great old animals by Lineol with care. Your impressive artistic skills has given these beautiful figures a new "lease on life." I am so impressed about your work and that you are happy with the composition figures in your collection.

Thank you very much Yvette but it was not a difficult restoration for these models you sent to me, already were in good condition but I am happy you enjoy it! And yes I am very happy with all these treasures that I did not think to collect before three so kind friends, like the three Cinderella fairies  make it possible!
