Hi Daniel

The groundwork has really come together well making for a very impressive scene .

Really like the painting of the gendarmes nicely positioned as well,

What's the size of the whole piece?

You will need a bigger house my friend !!!,

Looking forward to more and I am sure we all hope you have the next project in your mind

Thanks for sharing

Working on finishing up these Mousquetaires....

 

[MarquisMini]

I've decided to paint these 3 chaps in the lace color for the 2nd company of the Mousquetaires du Roi, the commonly know as Mousquetaires Noir, because of their black horses, the first company was known as the Mousquetaires gris, grey horses and they had gold lace compare to the 2nd company which had silver lace.

 

[Oda]

One more great addition to your mini univerese and some valuable uniformoligical information for the rest of us.
