Hi to all. I finished this bust of Heavy Dragoon today. The brand is SK Miniatures 200mm.sculpted by CARL REID.
All is painted using acrylics. All comments wellcome.

Well.......I don't know where to start from.......The magnificently sculpted bust by Carl Reid or the beautiful painting.
Everything is amazing, the face painting, the uniform ,the texture.(y)
I wish could paint at least 50% of your skills......Congratulations

I love everything about this piece,excellent sculpting by carl but your painting Anson is beautifully done,the weathering and wear touches have been done very well,the red jacket has also been done beautifully as well,i love it :)
 
Very nicely finished, I have this in my long line on the bench, well done.
I had a closer look at the images, the reds are very well done, especially around the dirty elbows and the heavy fold areas, the whites are great, a really nice touch being the blue and white stripes for his undershirt. The metals are great as well.

I have one slight observation, I am not picking on your quality of painting, it's beautiful, but just a little bit of positioning, it would be the eyes, as he is seen looking over his right should, going by the position of the head, would the eyes be more to his right side rather than centre. Otherwise there is nothing else to say, but it is just beautifully painted

I can't put it any better than the other posters, just beautiful painting. Also count on Carl to put some different body language on a terrific sculpt.
