Hussard De La Mort

[elanlane13]

Below are some smudgy snaps of a 1/12th bust of a French Revolutionary Hussard de la Mort. This project has taken ages to sculpt, so it is with some sense of relief that it is now nearly complete. I'd like to thank Keith Davidson and Kev Peart for their help in researching the uniform. This will wing it's way to the caster and be available for sale on the Elan13 Miniatures stand at Euro Militaire.

Thanks for the further comments.

Rich, as usual for me it is sculpted in a variety of media.
The main head/body section is in a mix of sculpy and sculpy firm (50/50)
The arm, mirlton and wing are sculpted in Magic Sculp
The rest of the detail work is in Duro or wire.
