Hi All,
Here is how it stands so far.
I altered Coghill's boots, removed all the mould line I hope, started to sculpt the patrol jacket and lacing. Scalloped out the hooves on the nag and added some more tack.
On Melvill I have started to remove some of the mould lines and fixed the leg positions. Scalloped out the hooves on the nag and added some more tack, I have also done the furled colours and filled the horse gaps.
Still a lot to do and with some of the fine work and needing to let it dry before I trash it with my fingers, I will do some sculpting tomorrow and lay down some colour on the base.
cheers

What to say except WOW!! .....that's a great idea , great modelling and your specialist area of knowledge
Like the composition and positioning of the horses over the base
This will be a very special piece
I for one am enjoying the conversion V Bench's that are being shared by Ken and Msrcus and now your good self
Look forward to seeing more
Happy benchtime

Late to the party with this, sorry Richie ,but I LOVE it!
Right up my street, full of extreme action- I was also reminded of Bill Horan's work as well as Frederick Remington paintings.
What have you used for the sun helmets, being 1/35 scale rather than 54mm?

Hi All,
Done a bit more work on the jackets, added stripes to the trousers and cleaned up the seam lines on Melvill, also altered his boots and started to work on both saddles.
I have also started work on the base whilst the putty is drying. I will have a look at the base tomorrow with fresh eyes and see what needs adjusting.

Hi All,
I've managed to get the horse's and both figures done and undercoated. May need to tidy up the saddle's.
I still have some work to do - stirrups, reins, halter's and swords on both. I need to sort out a pistol for Melville and on Coghill I need to try and add some more fine detail on the jacket. I basically have toggle buttons, trefoil sleeve knots and the loop on the upper part of the jacket. I have done the bottom part and the loops on the front then run out of swear words.
cheers

Hi Roger,
Thank you mate, I don't think I'm at burnout, I'm just not used to working in 1:35 and it's mighty fiddley. It's trying to put loops on in putty that are only a couple of millimetres in size. Saying that it has been enjoyable and rewarding and I can't wait to start painting the horses.
cheers
Richie
Hi Nap,
Thank you, it's like any modelling project if you enjoy it just rolls on.
