THX for looking,

That's fantastic! I love the leopardskin horse blanket and the general busyness of the scene! superb work.

That looks great! There's a lot going on there. What a gaming piece.

You can hear them discussing their plans and the sounds of marching feet! Great set...there looks to be some worried officers!!!!

THX guys!

I am really enjoying painting these vignettes these days. Although this does not fit my current prime project, I have some British officers that are burning under my nails right now. I guess those will come soon(ish).

Cheers,

Burkhard

Lovely painting and composition.

Lovely painting Burkhard! It appears to be Non-Metallic Metal technique?

As others have said, the composition and 'choreography' are spot on as well.

THX again mates!

@Greystreak: All the gold and silver lace and cloth were done using NMM techniques. All the real metal parts (helmet, scabbards, spurs...) were done usingmmetalic paints. So far I have been doing it that way with all my Napoleonic minis and I love the results.

Cheers,
