Hello Guys,
Just finished this awesome sculpt from Carl Reid. The only thing I changed whas sculpting a feather. I read that all this guys had a feather on the hat.
Cleaning: almost nothing, the useull things with resin.
Painting: Oil's and Printers inkt.
Base: Oakwood Studio.
Maybe I'm gone to far with dirt, so if so........shoot.

Looks good to me mate a bit of dirt goes a long way to making it look realistic I think especially one like this.

Happy to see this finished safe and well.The ostrich plume is a good addition .
I'm having a lot of troubles on mine: I'm actually repairing the hat brim (for 3rd time!!). Also, the saddle fell to the floor and needed more milliput and repainting again, and the cigar is missing

Fantastic paintwork Marc.
It seems to me a very realistic version.
I really like how you made the gray uniform.
