Prussian Uhlan 1870

[Jason W.]

Hi everyone. Here's some in-progress pic's of my latest. Just need to work on the sword and his cartridge box belt buckle. Not sure what regiment to paint him yet, still trying to dig up reference.

Thanks for looking.

Hello Jason,

So when will he be shipped to my house for Christmas? I think this is by far the best figure that you have done! I am looking forward to seeing him painted. He reminds me of the Uhlan the Derrick did for PM.

Keep up the Great work!

The head is from Hornet or Yank. I bought a bunch of spare 1/35 scale heads off e-bay of different makes.

Thanks Guy, appreciate it.

Thanks Joe! He's going to sit on the back burner for awhile, my creative juices are still flowing.

Hey Jason!

Great job ! Love the folds on the pants, looking great.

Looks terrific Jason. I like how you've animated an otherwise straight up and down pose.

Excellent work Jason

 

[Jason W.]

Thanks guy's. Like I was saying, I have some things to smooth out. His shoulder scales need to be "rounded" more on the bottom and the sculpting of the cartridge box sling buckle. It was a fairly easy sculpt w/ about 12 hrs. work.

Thanks again

Jason

Hey Jason!

How did you go about doing the 'scales' for the chin strap?

 

[Jason W.]

Anders,

I took a thin string of Duro, glued it to the face (one side at a time) flattened it w/ the toothpick then seperated each scale w/ an exacto knife, making sure the scales look overlaped, then I took a dental bur and split the scale to give a scale shape.
