Thanks for the kind words Ian. :smiling3:


I know what you mean about the gas mask for the horse.


This model kit was based on a real picture.

Beautifully painted Ralph, really like it. There is something a little 'other worldly' to it though, if I saw this through the mist I would be in the next county five minutes later.......

This is another of your greats Ralph , I really do like the colours ( Ian beat me to the ref of the horse gas mask )


I remember reading somewhere that both sides did gas masks for horses as the casualties of horses mounted. It's amazing the breed wasn't exterminated from the planet during WW1.


I really do like your figures Ralph as you portray wonderful colours and shades for animals and people.


This is an art I will n ed to achieve with more practice.


Really well done


Regards


Robert

Stunning job Ralph. The history behind the Chevaulegers and Uhlans is very interesting.

very nice indeed, and very well painted, like the subject too, this has an almost `apocalyptic` feel to it.


really like it.
