    Thanks Ron

    Chasseur green's a lovely colour,
    I think you and I should paint some more of 'em :)

    I hope you can boast some more progress soon with your mounted vignette.

    Hi Paul. Brilliant,
    I have the old Verlinden Chassuer Bust sitting on the bench waiting.
    I'll be using yours as inspiration.


    Cheers

    Beautiful work Paul. Great character. You've brought an excellent sculpt to life with this fantastic paint job.
    This has almost made me a fan of half figures... No easy task

    Great job Paul. The photos look great but I remember the face looked even better in the flesh so bet it's stunning now it's completed. I'm not going to Euro so hopefully will get to see it at another event soon. Best of luck getting it down there.
    Cheers

    Very nice job Paul! The chasseur green is well captured(y)(y) The modeling fraternity owes a lot to Géricault come to think of it, starting with that excellent representation by Ray Lamb on the cover of the Historex catalogue ages ago.
    Pity I can't see it in the flesh:cry: , but Euro once again collides with the annual big airshow here tomorrow with PdF and Frecce Tricolori and hamburgers and beer and and ...
    Cheers,
