Chasseur a Cheval

[John Long]

An arduous journey. My second Napoleonic ever. I enjoyed this one more than the last, but it had it's frustrations. Not the least of which was a small tumble which required some difficult touchup.

John, the arduous journey was worth it. A beautiful figure on an exellent base, you must be very pleased.

That's nicely done John. Lovely greens and lacing. I also like the groundwork a lot. Keep on "napoleoning"

John,

It was all worth the effort. You did an extremely good paintjob on this.
Your base is also very good and sets the figure in a great setting.
Chapeua.

Being a napoleonic enthusiast I cannot not love this. Again, that setting is awesome.

Hi John Long,
Good work, nice painting and correct colours. I hope this succesful result will push you to continue in painting naps.

VERY nice John! Much better than it would have ever been in my possesion I might add (in fact, it'd probably still be grey! :lol: ). Excellent groundwork. Iv'e always been a fan of your entire setting for a figure. This one is certianly no exception. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh one day.

Thanks guys, especially you Jim.

The rest of you may not know, but it was Jim's generosity that caused me to come into possession of this figure. Another example of how open the figure painting community can be.
