Wonderful job, George.  The custom chandelier and censer are great and the icons are a perfect size and a nice touch.   :)

Nice custom! ;) Reminds me I still hope for the Wandering Monk to be re-issued, though. :(

Cool, an Orthodox one I assume? Are the Greek Orthodox different from the Russian Orthodox priests? Here in Belgium we're mostly Catholic (well, the original inhabitants at least, and when we still have a reglion at all)...
What did you make his hat from? I'd guess a reversed bucket with a flat top assembled on?

I don't know many things for the Russian Orthodox priests but we have lots of common customs. About the hat yes, I made this with a bucket and at the top I stuck a piece of hard paper. ;)

Friendly George. :)

He looks just right, especially with the church and all the details you added. 

I like the baptism thing (don't know the word in English). Do I spot a big kettle which you painted?

Cool custom  :hatoff:

In English we call it a "font". A Baptismal Font.

Very neat idea for the headgear, by the way!

Hello Birbie.

Yes for the baptismal font I have use a big kettle. For the base I have use a big bucket I think of the set 4322. The PlaymoDB is not working and I can't show you the bucket. I turned upside the bucket, I stuck it with the kettle and then I painted them. ;)

Thank you so much for your comments guys!!!

First I want to say that the idea with the Greek priest is coming from a very good friend and a great Greek collector (Ntanny Gavakis). For his priest he have use the black and fat monk and a long black cape. Our priests are wearing always black clothes. Of course in a baptism or a marriage they are wearing a white robe up of the black clothes. You will see them with those clothes also in their personal life!! Anyway, for my priest I made a few changes and I have use a cape from a pirate figure! I just wanted to give him volume. ;) Thanks for your comment.

George. :)
