Officer, Skinners Horse.

    I’ve just about finished this super bust from Gordon Mitchell/Moz Corry of an Officer of Skinner’s Horse, 1st (Duke of York’s Own) Bengal Cavalry. The gauntlets are still wet and I will probably go back once they are a dry and go over the highlights but to all intents and purposes it’s done. I really enjoyed the challenge of hopefully getting something near to the correct uniform colour and my thanks go to Nap and Akayru from the forum for providing some excellent reference material to help in this. The base is from Richard at Oakwood Studios.

    The bust is finished in oils over enamels and any comments/critique are welcome.

    Thanks for looking,
