More work on flats SYW

[Essex Boy]

Excellent.

I wasn't sure textured bases would really work with flats. But they do....

Another splendid unit.

I had the same thought Andy and tried several variations but I liked the textured bases best.
Cheers for both your kind comments and support.

Finished this cavalry regiment today Prussian Leibregiment 3rd cuirassiers.
I did not paint the eagles, cypher details and the sash on the crossbelts as less is more
when painting these figures.
Not sure if I am happy with the gloves, may repaint those bits.

Those are splendid!

[RMD]

Lovely once again!

As you say, less can often be more. I stopped painting (most) shabraque-badges years ago, as combined with coat-tails, scabbards and other bits of kit hanging down, they largely obscured the dominant colour of the shabraque.

[Willz the Wargamer]

Cheers chaps for your kind comments, RMD as you say sometimes it's best to use artistic licence.
Some sources state that these heavy cavalry sword scabbard was brown but I liked gunmetal instead.
