With this work I wanted to strenghten his expression with the help of a cast shadow from the shako. I have used this effect on a previous project but wanted to integrate it slightly more this time in order to find an effect that was more natural and less stylistic.
Best,

So many great things here. I particularly like the buttons, handle of the pistol and badge. The care and detail with fabric textures etc. is also impressive. I also appreciate the attention to the edge of the sabre. Great work!

Cheers Alex! What’s your FB ‘handle’ so I can do a search. (I had thought about doing mine as the Pavolgrad regiment, being a fan of ‘War and Peace’)...maybe the Akhtyrka regiment would be a good call for the alternative option on this one….bust exceptional job on this!
