These have been on the bench a while as ‘things to work on while paint dries’. I wanted to get them out the way before I go on holiday as I find it difficult to pick up again if I have to many on the go.
First up, a little bust, bit smaller than 120mm, not sure of exact scale. This is. Belgian Grenadier 1854-1871. This little figure was gifted to me to ‘have a go at’. It isn’t too bad but not as good as I would have liked. As with the next one, braid and lace are not my strong point, I just don’t have the brush control.
Next up is a 120mm 8th King’s Royal Irish Hussar
This is from MJ Miniatures. A nice enough bust but again, the braid is something I struggle with and it really is a focal point on something like this so not great.
I still enjoyed painting them though, it is all practice. In both cases, flesh in oils, the rest in acrylic.
