[Borek]

Hi guys

Next toy soldier style figure is done. Last figure for small vignette "Napoleon's return from Elba" according historical painting.

Material: Bees Putty, the base of the figure is made of wire and Magic Sculp putty. The right palm and the eagle in it are also from Magic Sculp (and scabbard).

Cheers Borek

I think the moderators have to change the header of the topic in Infantery man 1812 instead of drummer.

Hi Marc,
I think they get out is that he looks to have drumstick in his cross belt.
I would still like to see a decent drum.
All the best

I’m not familiar with the historical painting. Great concept but is that a flag over his knees? If so, it will be difficult to paint convincingly — and I’m being polite here. Bad enough trying to figure out the bands of the tricolour but lettering for battle honours, etc. will be a nightmare.

If it’s just a cloth, then OK. Congratulations to Borek.

Thanks Keith. I did not do the drum, the customer will cast it separately, take it from another sculpt

Well, when he's a drummer, he's got a drummer uniform, a drumstick on his chest ... And the drum will be delivered separately (see previous answer )

I do like your sculpting style Borek.

Thanks a lot Ralph

Thanks Jeff . It's just a cloth. I think he had a packed eagle in this cloth (eagle, that he holds in his right hand). Here is the original artwork:

Thanks so much guys

Hi Jeff
Try this slightly better picture.
The colours are a bit more vibrant.
Search Google for Charles Auguste Guillaume Steuben for better copies of his work.

This painting is very atmospheric... Maybe it would be nice to model the whole scene, but I will also be happy with the 5 figures


Thanks guys
