Hey folks, here is my Polish Cuirassier all finished.
The main paints I used were Vallejo, citadel and Mr metal color for the armour.
mounted on an oakwood studios base with some brass tubing from the LHS.

I had the pleasure of meeting arj and catching up with Nap, and bought too many models as well.. thankyou for the kind words hopefully I will get another bust soon.

Graham I'm really pleased. Went from my first bust in November to getting some wins this year and that's a bit of a nice surprise. I'm still learning and flying blind. My diorama got a trophy which was also a nice surprise. I was looking for a new bust as well bit there weren't any I could see so got some wingy things instead

Superb diorama Paul. This is why I have given up on armour kit building. Dioramas are the only real way to set them off but I am rubbish at them. Figures look great on this too, very nicely done
