WIP Critique Chevau Leger 54MM-Metal Models

[Mike Stevens]

Updated Photos below.

This a WIP. The horse is painted on oils and acrylics. I’m currently working on rider. This is quite a project. There is a lot of complexity with this kit from a painting perspective.

Thanks for looking.

Nice Mike, the horse colour looks very good, following.

Horse & base look extremely nice, as does the figure’s face. Thanks for sharing, Mike.

Hi Mike

Nice to see you painting ...like the horse colour as well .....as you say a lot to think about when painting

Look forward to more on this

Looking good Mike.

All metal models mounted stuff take a hell of a lot thought re painting and assembly , I immersed myself in them for two years then decided I need to get away for a while

It looks really well so far, I like the light brown tones you chosen for the horse.

Thanks Eduardo, I like the lighter color as well, more difficult to achieve the result I wanted but worth the effort.

Thanks Nap, It's optimistic to think I'll be done in November! Probably in December sometime.

Thanks Ronaldo, I understand your sentiments. I'm usually only good for one mounted Napoleonic per year. I might get a second one in this year if feel like a masochist.
