as you know I like to reproduce famous painting in miniatures. It's the time of a project that was in my shelf since many years

it's Murat at Aboukir during the Egiptian campaign

the hrse comes from Metal Modeles range and is converted from the mameluck horse. Neck has been sculted and the horse's head is a resin copy of an old Phoenix ( converted)


the guy head was sculpted for Elisen many years ago but I continue to consider it the better available on the market, legs MM plus milliput Terracotta the other parts


enjoy

Ivo,
Can't wait to see another masterpiece!

Rod

Another masterpiece in progress!
Nice to see something different with a classic Napoleonic subject !

very good start, looking forward to seeing him finished it's going to be a classic.

Ian

nice start !

Another stunner in the creating process.
Looking forward to the painted version.

marc

Very, very clever. I look forward to seeing progress.

Question Ivo , why terracotta miliput, is it finer than than the silver ?

Ron

I think this is more a creation than a conversion, it´s a really creative work , I follow.

Military miniatures painted by Eduardo Garcia

Another masterpiece in the making.

I don't remember the silver, I've the white ad it isn't really different from the white. It has a good and visible colour

Another great figure from the master. That is a nice face. An old Elisen figure you say? Are they still available? I didn't find any using Google.

no, unfortunately Elisena figures are not available since a long time.

Wow another masterpiece in the making. Will be watch and learning as usual.

Cheers

update ...


the day after...

another step, details have been added to complete the figure and also the right arm has been modified to accomplish the painting

Hi Ivo,
Brilliant work as ever. Very interesting to see your sculpting process. I assume that the figure and horse are one piece and that you will paint them together without taking them apart?
Cheers
Mat

Brillant !
A representation Murat during the Egyptian campaign.
Probably the most famous.
Another outfit is known for this period, always Murat style:

Hi Matt

Good to read you. I've two pieces the man and the horse that will be painted separately.

the final version...
