Further progress pic

The detail is coming along quite nicely.

Please feel free to comment.



May look a little rough in part but it all comes together neatly.

Hi Malc

Might look rough at the moment but it's going to look great once it all comes together


Reckon that horse uses a good toothpaste ..lol

Look forward to more from you on this


Happy benchtime

Here's an update on this wee project.

Still a fair bit of work to do but I'm enjoying messing..

 

[malc]

For the cuirassier hores I have had a go at making the horses bits.

Very nice dynamic scene, nicely painted so far. Keep it up, it will be a great vignette

Cheers Borek

Beautifully painted - I find red very difficult to get right. The pose is more artistic than realistic, but they make a well matched pair.

Thanks for your input guys, appreciate it.

I don't mind the artistic pose of figures as it is the paint that brings it to life, although some of the work I have done is to attempt to give movement..... hopefully.

As for reds I tend,and to pick 3 : light, medium and dark...ish and go from there.

Small update





Criticism is most appreciated.

I remade the tail as I think the supplied tail is to thick.

Hi malc

great work so far - really dynamic.

i hope i'm not 'teaching granny to suck eggs' but I thought this photo may be useful when you do the reins of the Cuirasser.

Check references there. That method of holding the reins was used by British cavalry but I believe the French did not use the snaffle reins when riding.
