    Another Elan13 Miniatures 65mm sculpt (by Mike Blank).
    While painting this one I managed to break off one of the spurs, which promptly disappeared into the maw of the carpet monster.

    Robert Lane kindly offered to send me some spurs (I had also broken another one on an Elan13 ECW standard bearer … still on the bench, but close to finishing).

    Many thanks to Robert for his help. It saved me quite a bit of work.

    Back to the figure …
    Painted in oils over Humbrol enamels, and metalwork in printers ink mixed with oils.

    Excellent painting, Andrew - I like the leatherwork on the boots & the colour of the buff coat is exceptional.

    Nice Job Andrew.(y)

    This is one of Mike's figures that I've not got around to yet, but seeing yours has reminded me about it. (I like 65mm as a size for painting as well)

    Thank you Paul.
    These are nice figures.
    My latest finished one is Rob's ECW Standard Bearer which slots nicely with Mike's sculpts.

    He looks great Andrew.
    Is it OK for me to put some of the pics on the Elan13 Miniatures Gallery?

    Thank you for your kind comment Kevin.
    He was certainly fun to paint.
    My only addition was the wart above the right eye (plastic rod into drilled hole, and sanded down).

    Cheers,

    Hi Robert,

    I'm pleased you like him.
    Thanks again for the spurs. Both figures have now been repaired and finished.

    You're more than welcome to use any of my photos on your Gallery.

    Cheers,

    Very nicely finished Andrew. One of a great set of figures offered by Rob from this period.

    Thank you Rick.
    I think that battle led to the formation of the New Model Army in 1645.
