Forgot to put any words in, but thanks to Ron and BillyTurnip for getting me this far!!

You're welcome Alan and they are both very nicely painted figures. No excuses now let's have more.

 

[tomifune]

Quit with the bull Alan and continue to post these beautiful pieces. These figures have a high level of difficulty just to finish!

Ron

 

[OldTaff]

Cheers, Ron. I haven't got that many pictures of my stuff.....my son-in-law is giving me hints on photography ; just following his lead,really. I'll get round to it.
That's what we need,--more round toits, as opposed to uptoits. There's downtoits, too, of which I'm told I don't do enough!..........I'll get me coat.

Alan,
I have also painted the French Infantry but not as good as your's, keep them coming

 

[OldTaff]

Cheers, Bob, I'll try.

Alan, like you I'm no expert at photography either

Question, how does the ancient PM hussar stand against the newer modern figure?
Quality doesn't date, I know, but it just looks sooooo stiff and wooden by comparison.

 

[OldTaff]

Yes, I know what you mean ; Ray Lamb modelled it on Detaille's painting of the same subject, hence the stiff and, I suppose, arrogant pose. New techniques have given us a marvellous range of figures to choose from, which is just great.

Beautifully finished Alan thanks for posting, I would happily sit
and view such finely painted stiff figures all day.
I really must finish 2 Postmilitaires here!
