First attempt at his bearded face.

The sargeant's horse.

Bits and bobs started.

September 24, 2022
Some parts aren't called up on the numbered diagram, so I'm going to have to figure out what they are, and where they are intended to go...
11
September 24, 2022
Plenty of details to work with.
12
September 24, 2022
Today's progress. A little more filler required, so almost ready for colours.

Building up the colours. Unfortunately I don't have a dark blue. Let's see how this develops...
16
September 24, 2022
Trying to emulate buckskin. More shading to follow.

Worn leather.

'e's 'armless enough, poor lad.....
21

Horses and their harness painted.
22
September 25, 2022
Pin-striped blanket! Yes, tail to be re-fixed...
23
September 25, 2022
Some of the filler needed to be rubbed down better, so will re-visit when the paint is really dry.
24
September 25, 2022
Ready for saddle, rider and all his bits and bobs.
25
September 25, 2022
They're coming along.....
26
September 25, 2022
Still to add plenty to the mounted soldier and his horse.
27
September 25, 2022
There is a choice of two right arms, but neither can be added until more small parts added.. The white stripe is as a base coat before adding yellow.
28
September 25, 2022
Some touch ups required, I see....
29
September 25, 2022
Coming together...Still to paint the ammunition belt.

September 25, 2022
I need to re-visit the skin tones later, now that it is more apparent where light and shade should be emphasised.

Welcome, all, and many thanks for your 'likes'. First stab at painting today, so we'll see how it looks tomorrow. I've previously mixed blue and scarlet enamels to create leather browns, but don't have acrylic equivalents just now. Making a chestnut colour for one horse may have to wait.

Many thanks for your 'like' too, Ben. This is my third set with horses. I need to complete the earlier ones too.... Just how to make the reins is going to be interesting....
