English Civil War Vignette

[Jason W.]

Here's one of several projects I had going over the winter. Sorry for not posting in "real" time, I've just been plain lazy.

The scene is taken from an illustration I saw in a book on the history of cavalry. It depicts a Parliamentarian "Ironside" riding down on two Royalist officers. As you can see, there's some artistic license in the composition.

This project, I will have to say, was the toughest to compose of any project of mine to date (yes, even the Guilford project). To get the pieces to gell together took many hours of manipulating and much observation.

I'll post the painted version in the next day or so.

Had the pleasure of seeing the completed piece at MFCA last weekend. Wait till you see how this turned out. In fact, Jason, you should put up pics of your entire display . . . before someone does it for you! ;-)
