Ah Cerulean Blue, all is revealed.
Lovely work Marc, I particularly like how you have shaded the red on the sabretache and crossbelt, it looks very convincing.

Hi Marc

Nice painting , the blue is really well done ...really does look like the image of a hussar ...a favourite with the ladies

Perhap the sabretasche straps are a little long but that's nough only .


Thanks for sharing

Nice job all-round Marc. Like the smooth blend in flesh areas.
I cannot understand the red brich soil base but I have to say he gives a great contrast to this work.

Cheers,
Pedro.

Thanks again guys for the comment.
Kevin: how long is reasonable for the sabretasch strap???
Pedro: The red brich is not so bright red as you see in the picture. It's more a grey red.
