75mm parthia Catafratari

Boots have now been painted, just needs a bit of weathering of the leather on the right boot, and the trousers shading and that sub piece is completed. Had to see how it was looking and i am very happy with it so far.


Also made a start on the head, decided to go with the masked version, seen a few completed examples of this model, but all with open helmets, so go different i thought.

Haha,
Hopefully pick Kuthulun and her 'pet' up at the IPMS nationals at Telford next month :smiling2:, quick check over then away it goes till Christmas. Last time i painted a horse was many a year ago and that was in oils :rolling:, so should be a new skill to master in Acrylics. :smiling5:

A little progress update. Rider is complete, waiting for some slow set superglue to get his hands and lance/spear attached to the arms. All painting work on him is complete;
