Hi folks..just letting the oils dry on this one...its one of the recent hussar releases from Gordon Mitchell...he is producing several different variations sculpted by moz. You can have full or half figures as well as different heads/headgear and different arm combinations..
This one I decided to complete as the 2nd regiment of Napoleonic Hussars...I have nearly completed a Hussar from the 3rd regiment..which I shall post shortly... As usual finished in oils...

Looking really good...............
Wayne

This is really good. I have a full figure of this Hussar and started it as 1 Hussar.
Like this color combiniation alot. What did you mixed for the skyblue en the brown.

Marc

This is very cool, it's going to be a great piece.

I got one of this range yesterday and I
I am waiting until you have all painted the first batch before I decide which regiment mine is gonna be !

Well done so far.

Paul.

I like this very much and the colour's are superb. I am working up to doing a Hussar in this scale.
Thank's for sharing.

Extremely well done.

I agree with Bob. A very nice piece of work, excellent painting and colours.

Chris

I've got my copy.....planning on either the grey/red of the 3rd or blue/white of the 5th

Beautiful work!

That is some smick paintwork there.

Cheer's,
Jeff.

Great job Mike. The brown looks particularly good and the blue is very vibrant. Seeing this has inspired me to crack on with a 4th hussar in parade trousers I've started.
Looking forward to your 3rd hussar.
cheers
Gordon

well done, I like this range too. One full figure done in 7th colors. 2 others in planning.
Ben

The brown/blue colour combination looks really good

Cracking work,
wondering what to do mine as, was going to do it like yours but might have to do
it something different now.

Chris

Love the colors - excellent work
Phil

Great work, vivid colors and very clean finishes.

Military miniatures painted by Eduardo Garcia

Very neatly painted.
Your colour levels are just right to make this a very eye-catching piece.
You've set the bar high for the rest of us.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi guys... many thanks for taking the time to view and comment...thanks to Wayne..Marc..Nap..Paul.. Bob..Ometz..Chris..Paul K....Jeff T...Gordon..Ben -nl..Rossbach
Chris Rib...Phil...Edorta and Andrew.. all your comments are really appreciated...
For those who asked for colour mixes....( I always purge my oils of excess oil before using them ) acylics are used as undercoat... The blue facing is just permanent blue , with blue black for shading and white added to the blue for highlight.
For the brown uniform I mixed up three or four mixes until I found the one which was most pleasing to my eye...This brown was Burnt Sienna with a little stil de grain brown(rembrant) added..... shaded with Van Dyke Brown...and highlights of golden orchre (rembrant) all wet on wet.....then after drying wet on dry...

Colour mixes are an individual thing and what ever looks good to you is the right one... Almost finished the 3rd regiment of hussars... hope to post soon if the heatwave does'nt melt the resin.... once again many thanks guys...all the best Mike

Excellent work. Love it.

Cheers
