Here are two more photos from different angles:

His face looks a bit odd in this photo; it looks somewhat different (better) in person. |

Here he is from the back. |
All in all., I am happy at how he turned out. He has not had his gloss applied yet. The entire army will be glossified at a later date.
As always, please leave your comments below.
Very smart indeed !
ReplyDeleteThank you Svjek.
DeleteHe looks terrific, CN! I'm very impressed by the vivid colours, too. Which paints are you using?
ReplyDeleteA word of warning about leaving the shininess to the end - it's a very dull job! It's bad enough having to go over a single battalion.

Thank you, and thanks for the warning.
DeleteMy paints are: Vallejo Game Color and Model Color, Ral Partha, IWM (Iron Wind Metal), P3 formula, Citadel (old - metallics mostly, in the hex shaped jar), MSP (Master Series Paint), and I have just added a couple of Army Painter Warpaints.
DeleteFurbish away...its a huge improvement!
ReplyDeleteThank you lewisgunner.
DeleteHe cleaned up very well!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jonathan.
DeleteA new man and better for the experience it would seem.
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, let’s hope so.
DeleteYes, In recall having three of these Hinton Hunt figures in my army - one each for Morand, Friant, and Gudin. The only difference between them was the horse color!
ReplyDeletePlease don't make us wait too long for glossy shots - they really come alive when shiny.
