Another winter project. I must have used every shade, from cold to warm, off white color Vallejo has to offer with alot of mixing between them. I really liked how this one turned out, I just wish I would have wrote down the mixes I used for the white uniform.

The only point in posting a couple in-progress pictures is to simply show how I posed the armature and material used in creating the sculpture. If someone takes something from them, all the better.

Thanks for looking.

Excellent work Jason

Who produces the rifle you are using ?

Thanks Steve, Marc, Carl and Gordy!

Gordy, the musket was part of a goodie bag full of odd weapons I bought from a vendor some years ago at some show. It included Springfield trapdoors, Maritni-Henrys, Mauser and some funky looking carbines. I want to say H-R Minatures made the batch. The casting aren't the greatest but a little TLC will make them servicable.

Beautiful!
I like the sculpting but your subtle painting drive me crazy
Congrats

jason, excellent sculpting and painting. bill

What an amazing figure Jason,i really love this period.
Unfortunatelly there are very few sculptors or brands that produce figures of that "era".
I have modified figures from the sevwn years's war to bring it as close as possible to the french infantry of 1781.
