Le Cavalier, 75mm FeR miniatures

[Viking Bob]

Not my normal Napoleonic subject but I wanted some thing different to paint and I liked the pose.
Here is my take on Le Cavalier from FeR miniatures. All painted in acrylics AK and Vallejo.

Very neat painting with subtle shading and highlighting. Good how you succeeded to bring out the best in the facial features. I really love what you have done here!

Very nicely done Bob and I like that you varied the colors and did not make him all pale blue.

Thank you, I wanted to avoid the light blue but tie in the colours of the inserts in the jacket, the trousers and the plume, I think it worked.

Nice job, Bob. Not so much a laughing cavalier, more of a slightly quizzical one.

Thank you for the comment, he has just finished laughing and wondered what the joke was.

You should venture outside your comfort zone more often for this is a great looking figure indeed.I especially like the sky blue on his coat.Would you mind sharing the exact colour combination you have used?

Oda, the colour blue came from AK set Blue uniforms colors. American Blue/Pale blue AK 3079. The highs were with a bit of ivory in the blue and a grey mixed with the blue to get the shadows.
I must admit that I did like this one and have my eye on doing more from this period.
Best regards

Mobo and Marc, thank you for the comment, very much appreciated.
