Completed Critique Russian drummer guards infantry, 1812

[Ben-nl]

Hello,

The last months I have painted the 75 mm figure Russian Drummer guards infantry (1812), produced by Irbis Miniatures.

It takes a lot of time to paint all the little details. The casting is masterwork! The yellow-red stripes are heavy work to paint. For the first time I have used a optivisor.
I hope you like it.

Excellent paintwork Ben, all around.....Yes, those yellow-red stripes do look like a bugger but they look great.

Excellent work. I agree that the red and yellow lacing looks challenging. BTW, welcome to the ranks of Club Optivisor.

Thanks Wayne, The first time I try to paint it without glasses, but that was being terrible. Good choice to use the optivisor!
