Hello Vitalino,
Your painting is good, but the shade of blue is uncorrect. May be you have used some grey to give ligjhts on the blue? The sky blue has to be more...bright, not fading in grey, or so seems from the photos
Before add the sabretache and his belts, cut a bit the belts of the sabre, they are too long
Bye bye and good forwarding

Hi Vitalino,
I saw the sabretache is mounted, but...wrong. My friend Maurizio has forgotten that the sabretache of french hussars was situated always upper the sabre and his belts, never behind; so, if you can do without damages, remove all and get on the sabre, then the sabretache above. Remember also the yellow cord retaining the shako, that begins from the back top of the shako, just in the center, and goes around the fur collar of pelisse.
About the light blue, there were 7 rgts of french hussars (1,2,5,9,10,12, and 13 Jerome Napoleon) that wore light blue, or sky blue, but they had some differences of shading from each to other.
Many greetings and compliments

Hi Vitalino,
Excuse me, but the photos don't help, perhaps the sabretache and swords are right...I saw on Pegaso site that their position is right (so my friend Maurizio has done all correct), but to put the sabre under the left hand, the belts get strange.
At last, if you put the sabre and sabretache as showed on the box photo, you're are right.

Well done on this figure.
I really like the composition and you've painted it really well.
I always admire your work, it certainly is inspiring for a beginner such as me, especially as my favourite period of our hobby is Napoleonics.
Thanks for posting.
Regards
Tim
