Dear Friend of Planet after a short pause .....
Public one of my recent work ...... Brigadier General Castella
The subject is a single piece collection ..... the scale is 54 mm
and the painting was given to Danilo.
The materials are always the same epoxy Putty , Brass, Lead etc..
The base of the Horse and Metal Models in which I made the changes you see in
Photo No. 7 ........ and are as follows ..... : I have somewhat increased the thickness between the two halves of about 1.5 mm,
I have restored a little muscle mass and I rebuilt the head, neck, The mane and tail.
The Putty is Magic Sculpt
The saddle is made with a puff of putty composed of a mix of A + B and Magic 30 +70%.
everything else you see color Tan (Colletto - Chest - Tails and some decorations) is always a mix of A + B and Magic, but with different percentage 50 +50%.
While the decorations on the hat, shoulder pads and The fur has been done with a mix of Duro and Magic
with a rate of 35 +75% .
The face as usual and created a Milliput White and all the cords in Iron wire sweet for goldsmiths.
For those who did not know I wrote a Castella Small Biography
Good Reading and Good vision to All ... Naturally .... all the questions that the comments are welcome.
Greetings to All MAB

In September of 1806 NAPOLEONE good knowledge of mankind and human resources available to him, gave him the command of the 2nd Regiment of the Swiss in the service of France.
While it is deeply realistic CASTELLA served loyally Napoleon.

Soon after ascending to the throne ... Napoleon, had to summon the General Castella, asking him to order his 4 Regimenti Swiss swear loyalty to serve again and their Emperor, Castella refused the order because it was contrary to his sense of honor, but he promised to report the 'Fédérale happened to diet and get back and fully respect their decision .......... on 4 April 1815 the diet Fédérale took the decision to return the 4 Regiments in Swiss homeland.
