Hi all!!

I took a break on my Captain Hussar and decide to finish this one.
I think in my previous post about this figure stated all about the figure, but I
must say again that is really fun to paint, and the gold ornaments are a nice challenge.
Just one note to say that the painting looks more brilliant than it really is,
because I had the light source to close to the figure...
Hope you like it.

This looks splendid Pedro
Nice greens and reds ,and i like what you have done with the base recessing into the plinth ,great Idea !!

ron

Looks great!

Wow, great figurine. The painting looks excellent.

I guess it's just a matter of time for me to break down and move on to 75 mm (there are great figures in this scale). I only do 54 mm ones.

Cheers,

Patrick

Excellent work.
Like the basework to.
How did you manage the laces.....NMM or printersink.

Marc

Thank You Ron, Edward, Patrick and Marc. Glad you liked it

Ron, the base looks nice this way, I took inspiration on alex aka sarouman work on this figure. The homemade base break
and left that gap, so I decided to go this way with it.

Patrick, I also started on 54mm, but after my third I took a chance on this scale and now only work on it.

Marc, for the laces I used neither NMW or printersink. Just acrylics, Gold, Burnt Umber, Black and highlights with a cream color.

Just awesome my friend!!! Very crisp colour and detail, gold work is really good ( always a pain for me) and I also think your base looks amazing!
I've been following your work since you came to this site and every figure is better than the last... keep on keeping on

Cheers

Very nicely painted and presented. I like the additional work you have added to the groundwork.

I agree with all the above.

Thank You Mike, Nick, Zeno, Colin, MalcC and John for stopping by and comment.

Good work Pedro. In my opinion is better to paint the gold embroideries using colors and add metals only as sparks around, because this way the general appearance is more real.
A very good example of painting golds, I´m sure you know it:

Thank You Eduardo for you comment. Yes, Edward made a excellent job on that figure. I use the gold metallic in the base color mix... than I do highlights and shadows with other colours.

A true work of art Pedro, I am sure you are very proud of this one as the figure stands.
Best regards

Great Paintwork. Awesome!!!
