WIP Critique Uhlan, Regiment von Treffenfeld (Altmärkisches) Nr. 16

[Ulrich]

Hi Roger. I think I must paint another one with that colours. Looks great.

Keith: And here you can see how he seats on the saddle http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/uhlan-regiment-von-treffenfeld-nr-16.68958/

Thanks Ulrich. I did consider other regiments but decided the light blue facings with white piping of Nr.16 was a nice looking colour combination.
Two figures, one in the old blue uniform and the other in grey, would make an interesting display, go for it and I will take the credit for a good idea.

That is easy to answer. It is my brand "Kaiser´s army 1914/18" http://www.sockelandbases.de/shopneu/index.php?language=en&cPath=34_51&page=2

Beat me to it Ulrich.
I will add it is highly recommended for it's quality.

Did a bit more horsing around today.

Nice horsey Roger. Very rich colouring. Is it the pics that make it appear that glossy or is the oil not dry yet?

The leather of the saddle looks great as well.

Cheers Colin. The oils are still wet but if it doesn't matt down I have a plan.

Lovely looking steed Roger !

Good to see you on the job again,... er,... ah,... as in doing figures and such. You know what I mean.

[ChaosCossack]

Oooooo, a plan. I've heard of them, but I've never actually had one myself.

Having a plan and carrying it out are two different things.

Hi Roger,
There's no hiding with this one, all sides to be painted before you bash it flat with the mallet. Seriously though Roger brought this to the club meet, at first we thought he had found it on the floor, a round everyone gasped. I can testify that is a lovely looking quality figure with great animation. I'm looking forward to seeing this in the flesh mate once painted, only a week to S & L will it be ready? No pressure then.
cheers
Richie

 

[billyturnip]

Cheers Richie.
There's no chance this will be ready for S&L. I don't do many of these funny round things so I'm going to make it last.

Thank you Georges, it's only a temporary visit to the round world but there is another round figure I have my eye on for when I visit Sword & Lance next week.
