10th Regiment of Light Dragoons, Officer 1805

[Robert Ramirez]

Hi mates!!

Here I bring you the pictures of the last figure that I have painted as a commission. It is a somewhat old reference from Pegaso, but it nevertheless has a superb quality both in the modelling and the reproduction. In a figure with so many small details, such quality is very relevant, almost a need, in order to obtain a good final result. Truth is that it takes a lot of work with all those decorations, braiding and small pieces, but once finished, it was really worth it.

Regards, Robert.

Great job Robert! I also have this one on the shelf but have been avoiding it because of all the detail you mentioned!
You've done a fantastic job on all aspects of this piece... flesh, braiding, blue, white and those sexy boots

Yes, Jan, it´s acrylics.

Wonderful work on this classic! I also have this one in the GA. I may never paint it now! Just brilliant.

 

[Robert Ramirez]

Thanks for the comments, I'm sincerely grateful for them.

Daniel, to paint the white of the trousers, I have used an easy but effective mix, which gives a "cold" white, in accordance with the other colors of the uniform:

MC= Vallejo model color.
PZ= Vallejo panzer aces color.
AC= Andrea color.

Base: medium grey 987 (MC) + track primer 304 (PZ) + prussian blue (AC)
Highlight: deck tan 986 (MC) + silver grey 883 (MC) + offwhite 820 (MC)
Shadows: base + track primer 304 (PZ) + dark rubber 306 (PZ)

Regards, Robert.
