I did lots of work on the moumted officer of the line Cavalry.
I decided to paimt him as the cavalry regiment Number 10th ( Former Royal-Cravates), this regiment was present at Valmy.

I am almost done with the cavalry officer.
Start it the Drummer boy, i decided to go with a faded blue coat and non regulation vest ....

Hi Daniel

Like the officers ..lots nice choice of facing colours there .

Drummer boy ..he really does look young and determined ..but brave looking straight ahead ....like the faded blue and the waistcoat ..nice touch .

Looking at the horses , they certainly are well sculpted any thoughts on colours yet ?

What are you using to paint the headwear ...just grays and washes ?

Happy painting

Thanks for sharing
