    I've just completed sculpting this 15th Hussar, Spain 1808 in 1/30 (54mm to eyes).
    It will be a future release for Elan13 Miniatures

    Such a lovely sculpt that I’m reluctant to mention it, really, but the right forearm seems to be a smidgin too long and could do with being the same length as his upper arm. 1mm or so shorter should do it, I’d guess.

    Sorry.

    Thank you for the feedback.
    He has a cigar in his left hand.
    Jeff, thank you for your comment. I have measured up the arm and it is the correct length. There is a fold/crease in the upper arm that has been washed out in the photo, which stops the forearm looking out of proportion.

    Thank you for the further feedback.
    Jeff I am very appreciative of the feedback, I want back to it and had another look and 1mm has been removed from the arm. Thank you again.

    This just rocks. Taking feedback, carefully considering it, and then acting on it? There are a lot of inject-molding companies that could learn from this!

    Yes that was the inspiration for it Carl. Though I think wearing a hussar outfit when I was working in school would have more worrying repercussions that many Napoleonic battles, unless you could persuade the locals that you were an Adam Ant tribute act.

    Excellent! Or even a Naploeonic George Formby, leaning on a lamp-post. Turned out nice again, eh Boney?
