Completed Heavy Dragoon Bust

[kilsh]

Encouraged by the response to my Paget post yesterday here is another one. This time Carl's Heavy Dragoon he did for Steve, I know there have been few posts of this already but it is a cracking sculpt, the face is great to paint. I changed the frogging on the jacket as all my research showed it to be in 5 groups of 2 rather than 10 equally spaced, as it looked to me, don't let that put you off it though!

Base from Richard, plate from Name It, Andrea for materials, Vallejo for leather and wood, Citadel metals, oils over acrylics for flesh over Citadel primer.

Exactly what I was going to say, the wood grain looks very convincing.
