Does anyone have the article from Military Modelling where Phil Kessling painted a 54mm Metal Modeles French Dragon using Artist Oils please?

Is this the article that you're after Terry? ...

Andrew, No, I am looking for the one of the 54mm Metal Models French Dragon from Napoleonic Wars.

Thank you though for responding. I greatly appreciate it!

Hi Terry,

I have a reasonably extensive database where Phil Kessling appears 27 times.
The Napoleonic dragoon (Metal Modeles) does not appear.
However, his article on 'Painting a Face' does feature that dragoon.
Perhaps that was what you were recollecting:-



Cheers,
Andrew

That is the article! Thanks so much for finding it and sharing it with me. Appreciate your assistance very much!

Best of Everything, Terry Martin

Yes guys that's impressive and really shows off the benefits of this forum, well done Andrew.
TERRY

These articles by Phil are how I learned to paint. Uncomplicated colour mixes, clearly explained with excellent photography. He did an amazing article on painting a bust for the Historical Miniatures 1998 World Expo (Toronto) special issue.

I still refer to that article every time I paint to this day.

Nice to see that my articles “live on.”

Any chance you could point me to in the right direction to find the article you mention about the bust Thanks for any info

Unless you wanted to get the original hardcopy, you could just download the image from Andrew's post.

Prost!

Thank you , but I was referring to the article he mentioned on the bust . Just edited my response .

The bust article was on the old Timeline site. It was also published in either Historical Miniature or Military Modelling. I no longer have a copy of it.

Phil:
Hope you are well, my friend. You are correct, the article was in Historical Miniatures #14.

Paul,
I am doing good. Hope you and the family are as well. Thanks for the info on the article. My books and magazines are as disorganized as my grey army!
