Back to the Polish Light Horse - Airbrush
Sorry for the long delay since the last post, but life has been hectic. First a cut thumb prevented modelling, then my wife was preparing for a major exhibition and I was roped in to frame some of the pictures. Yes, the cut thumb and cleaning glass for the frames was part of the delay!!!
Then, along came an airbrush and compressor that forced us to buy it.
The horse has been airbrushed in a mixture of diluted Vallejo acrylics. This is the first coat. Highlights of light and dark still to follow. I am amazed at how accurate you can get with an airbrush. And with lots of practice, no doubt a lot better than this, my first attempt.
The horse needs lots of tidying up, but this is a good, solid base coat to build on.

Reza, thanks for your kind comment in my blog.
I have made a few models and dioramas in the past for a gallery that was opening and in fact I am in the process of doing ome figures for a friend’s WWII diorama.
If you want a model built, but do not mind waiting until early next year for it, then please contact me.
Once again, thanks for your comment,
