Officer, Von Rattsky Hussars, 1708 (Poste Militaire)

[arj]

I started this Poste Militaire figure back in July 2020, but then had problems with the sabretache, and it ended up on the ‘Shelf of Shame’.

It’s a 75mm figure of an Officer of Von Rattsky Hussars, 1708 (The original W.I.P. can be found HERE).

Finally got it fixed and finished the painting in a mixture of enamels, oils, acrylics and printers inks.



Hope you like it.

Cheers,
Andrew

It's been glaring down at me for quite a long while Kevin.
Consequently, I'm also glad to see it finished.
It proved to be a fun piece once I got going again.
Thanks for putting the forward link in my W.I.P.

Cheers,
Andrew

You've done a great job of rescuing him. The work on the animal pelt is superb.
