Just received an E.Mail from Pegaso models of Italy to say that FM Beneito has died. This young guy was an amazing figure painter and started his own company sculpting and retailing some fine 54mm and 90 mm historical figures.He won many figure contests in france and worldwide.

Shocked & sad to hear this. I've only seen photographs of his work, but he was a true Master. Did they mention the cause of his death ?

Regards, Rick

He has done some amazing work. Sorry to hear of his passing at so young an age.

I'm sorry to say I do not know who he is, but I shall seek out his work, in which he will live on.
