It is very important to visualize the piece without decorations and ornaments, to truly understand the real cut of the uniform.
Good research is certainly an absolute necessity.
My dear friend Simoncini has been fundamental regarding the realization of the Russian Hussar, I would have not known where to start, his passion for the hussars has made him a great fountain of information.
These two sculptures will grace and enrich his collection.
After ascertaining that everything is in the proper place, with the addition of all the decorations and ornaments , the figures are now complete and primed. Some details such as the glasses, sabretache etc…, will be added after the figures are completely painted.
Ciao to all my friends and fellow members of the Planet.

Amazing work as always. To be honest i was not expecting anything less than that. If only they were commercially available... I just hope that one day Stefano will release a few figures of similar era and subject in the market for us to enjoy.

Stefano, those are just fantastic! Anatomy and drapery are exceptionally done.~Gary

Wow! Beautiful sculpting! All the detail on the hussar's uniform must have taken hours and hours of labor. We're talking major eyestrain here, folks!

One small quibble, if the peanut gallery may be allowed. Look at the left boot of the second figure. It looks too long and thin compared to the right boot. Offered as constructive critique only.

All the best,
Dan
