Fantastic, I love it.

Ney's baldy head with his ginger hair.

The dapple effect on the grey horse is good.

Stunning. Napoleonic gamers must have the patience of saints. Hats off to you.

Everyone should definitely check out the painting reference picture on his blog. A lot more was accomplished here than good looking miniatures. What a great set to paint-- you more than did it justice.

I listen to the Sharpe series of audiobooks by Bernard Cornwell while painting Napoleonics. Though I would also highly recommend the Napoleon Podcast, which is a general biography and history podcast about the man himself.

Thank you guys (and sorry for only replying now... somehow I only got adverts when accessing the forum on holidays)!

Regarding the patience of Saints... we are Saints... well at least some of us! ;-)
