    Finally after long painting on this I finished him. The sculpting from Carl Reid is amazing. Alot of character on the face.
    Totally painted with oils.
    One complene: He didn't fit in my showcase cabinet.

    Hi Marc

    A nice piece of sculpting from Carl and no doubt the casting as good from Gra at CGS

    Certainly looks a heck of a lot of work must have took a lot of planning as well

    really like the cuirass and the work on the flag particularly the highlights

    ....a bigger display cabinet perhaps ?

    Thanks for sharing

    Happy benchtime

    Very well done. I especially like the look of the cutlass. What paints did you use?

    Thanks alot for the compliments.

    The colors I used for the Cuirass are the follow: Base a mix with gold and burnt sienna. Shadows with burn umber. Highlights with pure gold. All Windsor and Newton.

    Marc....Excellent painting on an excellent sculpt. I may be wrong but that looks like a Carabinier and not a Cuirassier. Either way it's a great looking piece of work.
