La Garde Recule - Bust 5

[smudger1960]

I've finaly got round to completing this latest part of the project,this is the 5th bust out of 6x I'm currently doing,no suprises with this one,all underpainted in acrylics and finished in oils and weathered in oils.
This piece was a conversion of the 4th Heavy dragoon bust by Carl Reid.
I've deliberately left the bayonet off,this will be fitted last.
