    Many thanks for comment. It was a real pleasure to work with this piece. Standard bearer is another gorgeous 'golden oldie' that deserves some paint (y)

    I missed this until now. Great figure, superbly painted and situated. Always thought this looked like a really solid lump of metal back in the day when advertised in Mil modelling -something about it has got proper heft! All the best for your recovery.

    Hi Ron C

    Just caught up with this great painting and setting , I have this guy tucked away at the back of the cabinet , bought it when it first came out .
    Never really been pleased with my effort although its not bad , lost the carbine and a bit of the snaffle bit .
    Maybe I might strip it down and do a re vamp , trouble is I can't get it off the old fashioned base .

    Well I finally got one for myself too after all these years, as a bargain from Richard of Oakwood Bases too.
    Safely in 'the stash' for now, ready to go.

    Hi Ron I can only imagine where your mind was after becoming ill but you certainly have pushed yourself to complete such a classic figure to this excellent standard, I am really happy that you have been able to accomplish this and hopefully we will see a lot more of your work, the Ray Lambe creations were always a favorite of mine but they involved a huge amount of work and confidence to tackle them and you have nailed this one.
    Think I have the 2 Orleans Cavalry, a mounted Samuri and the Cuirrasier that I had started many moons ago and ditched lol.
    Well Done

    I am glad you are back painting and going from strength to strength health wise.
    Absolutely fantastic painting, and a superb setting, all top notch.
    I did have this but lost due to moving some years ago and I am still on the lookout for this one.

    This is one of my all time favourite figures and you’ve done a super job all round on this Ron. Glad you were able to continue with it and hope the recovery is continuing.
