Officer of Dragoons, 1870 finished

[JGREEN]

Hi guys,

Finally finished this elegant classic from Metal Models. Painted with acrylics, with the exception of the metallic gold parts which are old-school printers ink and oils. I tried to echo the main colors of the figure (red, black, and white) in the groundwork to achieve an overall harmony. The figure is 54mm. Thanks for looking!

I love this.
Very nicely painted and presented.
Interesting how little had changed by 1914. MM's dragoon from that date is almost the same.
Excellent work.

What a wonderful little scene!

Did the stone works come with the figure, or did you fabricate it?

Joe,
The balustrade is from Bayardi.

Yeah, Bayardi makes some first-rate accessories. An excellent choice on your part.

Hi Jason

Great to see what you've been working on , a lovely piece of artwork and presentation

The basework is really effective , the reds are very vibrant on both trousers and the planting
