Here is my next project 1/6 scale NSW Lancer from Naked Army who produced this beauty several months ago . A cold cast bronze that i have been asked to paint to be put on display in Melbourne.
I have undercoated the figure and will be getting the brushes ready to begin in the next day or so.
I hope to complete this project in 4 - 5 weeks

A little different and a really nice sculpt , I believe it will be displayed at Platatac .
Just blocking in the acrylic undercoat for the face and have done the basics on the lance now have to do the metals and leather on it

Interesting figure ... and then I love the lancers

Al,

What a great figure. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Cheers
Chris

Thanks Chris
Interesting colours on this one and a lot of detail to bring out , I have some great reference material for this one as well , a mate of mine was cadre staff at the unit many years ago and has leant me some great uniform photos from the museum at Parramatta , hope i can do it justice
Cheers

I am sure you will do a fabulous job with it. The khaki for the NSW Lancers is a tricky mix, but I have no doubt you will nail it.

Cheers

Nifty!! I see they used the bamboo lance like the Indian and British lancers. Will follow.

All the best,
Dan

Thanks for the comments gents , Dan , like all Australian military uniforms and equipment of the day were all based on British uniforms .

What an imposing sculpt.

This looks a cracker.

Hope you enjoy every minute you invest in it.

A lovely figure. I've been thinking of doing one of these in 150mm for Victory Miniatures.

Flesh finished i've started working the shading and highlights on the slouch hat and have started to silver the buttons and badges
Al

Looking splendid.
It already has the right look!
Super.

Stable Belt has been done with acrylic undercoat of bright yellow then a wash of ice yellow , the final coats are of a gold and black wash then a thinned gold and pewter wash to tone it down , hat and collar badges were done with steel and black then highlighted with steel as first highlight steel and silver as 2nd highlight then silver as final highlight

Blocked in the colour and i've added JoSonja texture paste to give texture to the fabric will now start to build up the red colouring and shading
Cheers

Great stuff Al. The texture paste really works in 1/6th scale. very subtle but definitely necessary.
