Curassier from CGS

[megroot]

Finally after long painting on this I finished him. The sculpting from Carl Reid is amazing. Alot of character on the face.
Totally painted with oils.
One complene: He didn't fit in my showcase cabinet.



Any comment will do.

Hi Marc

A nice piece of sculpting from Carl and no doubt the casting as good from Gra at CGS

Certainly looks a heck of a lot of work must have took a lot of planning as well

really like the cuirass and the work on the flag particularly the highlights

....a bigger display cabinet perhaps ?

Thanks for sharing

Happy benchtime

Very well done. I especially like the look of the cutlass. What paints did you use?

 

[megroot]

Thanks alot for the compliments.

The colors I used for the Cuirass are the follow: Base a mix with gold and burnt sienna. Shadows with burn umber. Highlights with pure gold. All Windsor and Newton.

Marc....Excellent painting on an excellent sculpt. I may be wrong but that looks like a Carabinier and not a Cuirassier. Either way it's a great looking piece of work.

very well done, I too would suggest bigger display cabinet or smaller base...

 

[clrsgt]

Marc, thanks for your response. I'll give it a try.

 

[Blind Pew]

Marc, just get a bigger cabinet mate. For this one, it's worth it.
