Tomoe was especially beautiful, with white skin, long hair, and charming features. She was also a remarkably strong archer, and as a swordswoman she was a warrior worth a thousand, ready to confront a demon or a god, mounted or on foot. She handled unbroken horses with superb skill; she rode unscathed down perilous descents. Whenever a battle was imminent, Yoshinaka sent her out as his first captain, equipped with strong armor, an oversized sword, and a mighty bow; and she performed more deeds of valor than any of his other warriors

Yesterday I received my 75mm Tomoe Gozen from Axis Mundi and I just had to share pictures with you because it'll be a while before I can get her onto the painting table. It's a wonderful sculpt with clean lines, a lot of flowing action and the kind of dynamism which is a hallmark of this series.

I stumbled across this just recently. Started saving up for when I can order it. My only concern is why do people insist on making models (as beautiful as they are) with only one tiny point of contact to their base?
