    Nice placement at the back rather than being in the main focus. Guessing the composition of so many figures isn't at all easy, he is really very good.

    Thanks Simon,
    It required a lot of thinking and planning.
    It has to make sense and the flow to look a natural scene of the Battlefield.

    Thanks Kev,
    The long pigtail is nice, not 100 % sure it was the norm in the French Army at the time.

    Almost finished with this Marechal de Camp.
    Still need to work some details and lights and shadows on the horse.
    For the gold lace i have used Vallejo game Glorious gold and a dab of vallejo yellow ink, a light wash of Vallejo sienna once the lace paint dried out. 20231106_161215.jpg 20231106_161236.jpg 20231106_161256.jpg

    Another nice figure, I find the Vallejo Game and Model metallic to be very thick and obscure detail, do you thin them with the inks?

    Hi Daniel

    Nice Marshall , glittering with gold , he looks like he lives well ! , the sculpting of the facial features always seem to be good on your figures

    Look forward to seeing more on the horse

    Have fun and thanks for the updates

    Not wrong about him, a real dandy. Imagine the cost these days if uniforms still had that much gold on them, he does look good though, a great figure.
