Completed Critique Chasseur ...from Jimbo and Nap

[Nap]

Hie Folks

After seeing my " mate" Jims great work on his Scots Grey rider and horse combination ........my head was swimming with thoughts

And the cry went out " Hey Jimbo I have a great idea " .......

So a recipe was hatched in amongst the sobbing and very naughty words from Jim ......

Using Mitches Chasseur and Siskin's Military horse , in addition to a pistol from Mitches midshipman


....my idea was this ....

A Chasseur/Hussar officer firing a pistol on a rearing horse with a leopard skin horse furniature

....so my little sculpting genius went for it ......I gave him all the references and prodding along the way ...and this is wheat he produced ....

This will be on my bench soon ..the aim to get it ready for Euro and in comp as a joint entry ...hope I can do it justice .

I will be adding a sheathed sword , reins etc as well having it in movement

Watch the V Bench in the near future once I have planned the bench work

Thanks for looking in and sharing Jimbo " the legs " Evans work he has done ........

Blooming AWESOME mate

and what a cuddly little cutie you are

Nap

PS A veritable mountain of biscuits were eaten during this process and when I went round for a paint day......


Oh and....... "no legs in 'ere"

Cheers Keith ..Jim did a fine job on this ....

It's going to take a bit of planning to paint but reckon once it's on the way it will flow !
