Completed Critique Officer Garde Imperiale - Chasseurs a cheval 1814

[Ben-nl]

Hello,

Here is my next project. It is the 75 mm officer la Garde Imperiale Chasseurs a Cheval [1814] produced by Pegaso Models.
My friend Mobo has built from scratch an entrance of a luxery house with two pillars.
Mobo, many thanks to help with this project!

Enjoy the photos from the beginning to the end...

Thanks Neil, I don't think he can do it....perhaps you can use the detailed photos how to build.

Looks great. The scene and the attitude of the figure work really well together.
The only observation is to my eye you could lower the composition by taking away the lowest step and wall to that level, I just feel it would tighten the whole thing better.
Alternatively perhaps a small dog at the foot of the steps looking up.
Cheers

Tend to agree... a dog or an adoring child?

Hi Ben ( and Mobo )

Really nice setting and a story ...perhaps he's waiting for the lady of the house to come to the door

The figure painting looks impressive and good colour

As for the mansion entrance , good to see how it was made and works well

Always good to see your figures

Why not enter a piece into the class of your choice in the new FOTM as well

Thanks for sharing

Look forward to the next

Happy bench time
