Amazing !

Fantastic. The build was incredible and I'm looking forward to seeing the painting progress with the vivid colours of this unit's uniforms. Thanks for the inspiration to improve!

Cheers

My proposal for the horse. Nothing finished.

Outstanding sbs conversion. You are correct by the way, about the longer pelisse for the period. The pelisse was of the length of the ancient regime and republican periods. Well done. Where does one get the Extratech rivet heads?

 

[Jaybo]

ancien that is!

 

[Paul20100]

Thanks. Got the PE plate from local modelling dealer, but for the pelisse I used 0.5mm rivets home made ouf of lead foil.

How have I managed to miss this? I must have been in a cave or something.

Outstanding in every way. Planning, execution.... the lot. A nice tip about those buttons, too.

 

[Klabautermann]

Amazing!

Hi there!

Long time no post, this time without SLR, sorry.
As you can see, I have completely changed my mind about the horse colour, and technique too.

 

[ChaosCossack]

OMG!!! Every hair? You're killing me!
That looks SO realistic, very well done Paul.

Yes, hair by hair. Same number as on a real horse, will you believe it?
There are not many ways to get a convincing dappled grey, IMO.

 

[Huw63]

This looks real! Will you post more pictures please. I would love to see more of this. Also some showing how you did the brown to grey transformation would be educational.

Cheers

Impressive technique - but I feel it would drive insane just attempting it Lovely feel about this build - expertly handled throughout.

Brilliant painting on the horse. The coat looks dappled and each hair shows up.

 

[Blind Pew]

The key to successful dappling on horses to to keep the spots random and not keep repeating them - you've cetainly managed that Paul. Excellent work mate

 

[Paul20100]

Thank you all. The difficult part of the dappling will be on the horse's rump, where we will see whether I got it or not.
