Title: Polish winged lancer (Gold at Salute 2018!)
Post by: Percal on April 16, 2018, 09:33:27 PM

Long time without posting! I'm sorry about that. Long story short, low production due to personal issues plus awful photos of the few things I finish...
But  back on topic... Here's a couple of pictures of the 54mm winged hussar I took with me all the way from Spain  to the Salute painting competition. I was really happy when they announced that I had won the first prize in the historical single figure category! I hope you like him. The pics are a bit overexposed, but alas, I can't do much better with my potato phone...

Thank you all! It was one of those miniatures that you get stuck on and can't seem to progress, so I'm very glad not only that I finished it, but also that I managed to do a good job with it  :) :) :)

Well done. I didn't stay for the announcement of the winners, but I saw it in the cabinet earlier in the day and I thought it deserved to win.

Percal, there is a VERY serious problem with your work!


To wit:

I haven't seen enough of it.  More, sir, more.  Astounding work.

A remarkable work of art! You can hear the horse neigh and the feathers moving by the wind!  :-*
