Coldstream Guard 1815

[Taouletta]

Hi,
Here is a figure of Scale75.
A Coldstream Guard 1815.
The ground was created by incorporating clay from the battlefield of Waterloo into the sculpting clay (picture 3).
I would be happy to read your reviews to improve for the next one.
Thank you for your attention.
ENJOY !

Hi there Eric

Great looking figure , nicely painted , you using Scale75 Acrylics? , like the jkt colour

I don't paint legs but he looks a little clean ..perhaps weather up the boots ?

Hi,
Thank you all.

Nap,
I use Vallejo acrylics colors and some oils.
You're right for the boots.

ENJOY

Beautiful work

Thank you.

Excellent. Subtle, sharp and convincing paintwork.
Loving the groundwork and ‘set’ of the figure. He sinks into the mud just enough to convey the ground’s muddy state.
Hope to see more of your work soon.

Very nicely done, and a great touch adding some of the actual battlefield soil! I agree with Nap, his boots do look a bit too clean for the state of the ground.

Peinture très soignée, superbe visage au vue de la taille (75mm)

Thanks for sharing mate. I like your painting style a lot. And red is not easy to deal with to make it convincing.

 

[Taouletta]

Thank you.

Painting the face is made easier due to very good sculpting.
