    Following on from the Eagle bearer I have now moved back to bust number 3,the face and bearskin I started on a few weeks back,now I have moved on to the uniform,this piece has no greatcoat on and wears the undress uniform of the guard on campaign.
    The epaulettes are still a little wet,but I will finish these off with some shading around the fringes in a couple of days.
    Weathering has been added to the cross belts and uniform front areas.

    This bust was originally the French dragoon from CGS,I used the same head from the eagle bearer and added the bandage with wound.

    The dark blue of the uniform I will start on Monday and finish on Tuesday.
    I would estimate I'm about 50% through this bust,the musket I have already painted.

    Just a small point. It is La Garde, not Le Garde.
