admin

A really superb figure of Fangio from Denizen – painted in Acrylics and Oils, I’ve tried to represent him “engaged in Battle” as it were, with the oil, dirt and grime of the race track in evidence on his face and clothing. “Wiki” links below providing more details: Juan Manuel Fangio (June 24, 1911 – July 17, 1995), nicknamed El Chueco (“knock-kneed”) or El Maestro (“The Master”), was a racing car driver from Argentina, who dominated the first decade of Formula One racing.

GRAHAM HILL – F1 DENIZEN FIGURE

I’ve done slight modifications to this figure using a small bit of Miliput to create the nomex scarf around the chin neck area (which I think is so reminicent of many of the Graham Hill images). “Wiki” links below give more details; Norman Graham Hill (15 February 1929 – 29 November 1975) was a British racing driver and two-time Formula One World Champion. He was born in Hampstead, London.
