2e rider almost finished

[robbyk9]

Hello guys

After a break with figure painting for several months (very busy at work and at home) I almost finished my 2e rider of the Napoleonic Artillery Train.
I hope this months would be for me more relax so I can paint. All comments
are welcome. Please be critic on my work so I can learn of it.

Greetings Dick Evegaars (robbyk9)

Dick,
looking good so far. It looks to me like the horse could use just a bit more highlight to emphasize his musculature. After all he is pulling that cannon, I think it might help emphasize the strain of the moment a bit more. Nice work! Be sure to show us this big project when your done!

Finally, :lol:
We at AMSS thought that you where stopped with painting because this one is your first figure.
You are going fine Dick. Looks real good to me. So that private lesson of Lisa payed off.
Hopefully we can meet your seconde rider and you thuesday evening.

Nice work. But, in my opinion, I think the horse needs more hightlights.

Hello friends

Thank you for the kind words and the good feedback. I agree with the feedback about the highligts.
I will give it a try to give it more contrast. It give me now already a headache hahaha.
I hope I will not ruin it with my clumsy hands. For my friends of AMSS I hope we meet each other soon my work and rebuilding my house have give me not te last months alot of space. But the winter is coming so than there is more spare time for me. And for my first figure project I now it is a biggy and I still not finished but it so fun to work on it.
I hope to finished this in the next year. The 3e rider is already primed and I have only about 10 figures and 5 horses to do hahaha.
I will keep you informed. Thanks again for your attention and time to look at my
project it really helps me alot.
