    Brilliant, I almost enjoy seeing the SBS work in progress more than the finished model to admire all the detailed work with the different materials.
    Ivo, when painting the figure first like this is he attached to the horse at this stage?
    Another question - in the early stages of your model you have used a resin horse head and neck, but then cut the head off and add a Metal Modeles head to the resin neck. Can I ask why you do this step and don't just sculpt the neck yourself ? And what manufacturer is the resin head - it looks good quality so I am surprised you throw it away?
    Cheers

    If I see it right the broderie and laces are painted with a NMM technique.
    Can you describe it for me. I tryed and tryed but never managed this.....

    hi Mat

    some answer... the figure isn't assembled. The rider will be glued at the end of the painting process also if I like to see to figure completed during the different stages (pictures are done to understand better the different must and minus of the process)

    I use commercial product specially when they fit my request... The horse neck is a non in production part directly from Leibovitz hand, I had a copy of this horse head years ago and, only for my use and with Bruno approval, I did a mould of it. I changed the head due to the harness...
    the head has been used for this project...
