Pegaso Conversion

[Ron Tamburrini]

This is a minor conversion of the Pegaso hussar officer elite company 75mm

Change of head and uniform colour to "Jeune Garde en 1813".
A tricky pegaso build

A wee bit of snagging still to do

May only be a minor conversion, but I prefer this to the Pegaso original. Great work Ron.

Beautifull work Ron!! It turned out great. The head works very well with the figure!

The minor conversion makes it look a completely different figure. Beautiful piece and very nicely finished off.

Stunning piece, Ron! Painting and groundwork is outstanding!
Did you used printers ink for lace and metallic hardware? The pigment is very, very fine. Looks great!
Cheers,

I use the old fashioned printers ink pre digital printing stuff which is like liquid gold and super fine , mixes with oils great .
A friend who was in the printing industry then; gave me a large bottle of the stuff which I have had for some 15 years or so . " hope it never runs out "

Great job Ron. You've handled the painting of the various textures really well.
Nice changes to the original See it soon.

Great Ron!
I really prefer this one than the Pegaso original I was going to do this uniform but had just finished another hussar with a red pelisse so opted for the green , I think both are right could open a debate here
