    Having painted several hundred plastic Spencer Smiths over the last year.  I thought I would have a go at the metal ones.

    Brigadier of light cavalry and general officer.

    So I purchased mounted general Cumberland AS25 and Saxe AS24.

    With an Irregular drummer.

    Beautiful result from a rather scarily blank canvas!

    I think you must have a really clear idea in your mind of the figure you are trying to draw out of the basic metal to get that result. I am tempted to have a go myself just to prove I could not get anywhere near that level of quality.

    Well done!

    Cheers for your kind comment Guy, funny that I was thinking that when I finished painting the figure.

    As Guy said, brilliant result from a scarily blank canvas.  Love the results.  Tons of character.
