[Paul20100]

Here we go with this new project. Bare horse from French sculptor Eisenbach, bit of Historex and fair amount of scratch.​

It’s beautiful already as you have it

I must say you have chosen a very difficult and complicated project. Horse looks great; looking forward to seeing the rider and drums. I'll be following with great interest.

 

[Oda]

Following with interest!

Oda.

As above, following with interest, shame my eyes do not seem to be up to 54mm.

Maybe a new article to read in one of the French magazines "FIGURINES" or ".
SOLDIER ", Anyway a little masterpiece in perspective!

If my memory is good, in this version (and in 54mm) one was produced by Borin's Miniatures, but it's quite hard to find !

 

[Edorta]

My favorite project. I follow.

Some more work on the horse, saddlery, etc.

 

[Edorta]

Very fine work with the reins and other stuff, clever solution, perfectly executed. A real lesson for me, very useful.

Do you make your own tiny chains for the harness work?

 

[Paul20100]

Yes.
The 1mm wide reins are cut in a lead foil, while the « chasse mouches » are made of flattened 0.25mm soldering wire.

 

[Paul20100]

Hi there! Some progresse on the project, thanks to the holiday season.

 

[Djoubri M]

This is very impressive stuff. Good grief!

Daniel, your work is fantastic, in line with great figurinist like Ivo.P or Piersergio.A
