Officer of the Grenadier Company of the Enlisted Regt of the Swedish Guard, Northern War 1700/1721

[Ben-nl]

Hello,

After my review (https://www.planetfigure.com/thread...-swedish-guard-northern-war-1700-1721.363863/) of this beautiful figure I show you now the paintingwork on it.
It is very nice figure with so many nice detail on it.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Special thanks to Aleksandr Kabankov (the sculptor) for helping me for the right uniform colors!

Dashing fella! Beautiful work. The pipe smoke is very well done. Thanks for the pictures.

Excellent work as always Ben. Will save your photos for bainting guides. My kit finally arrived and it is ready for priming, but Mr. Fumble Fingers managed to break the sword right out of the boxes, so back on the shelf while I cool off. I have been looking through my blue paints for the right blues having never done a Swedish soldier before and I have chosen the Ultra Marine Blue triad by Reaper. It seems to be the closest to references I found. What blues did you use?

Well done!

Hi Ben

Cracking artwork on a really fine sculpt ......love the whole look he has , and a very striking uniform

Like the pipe smoke ...nice touch

This would make a amazing bust as well ( I live in hope ! )
