Duke of Cumberland (1 Viewer)

[blaster]

Was looking at doing this fat duke.
I noticed that one of the commercial heads resembled him in the Morier paintings.
He was grossly overweight and was wearing a cuirass. So I selected an Airfix cuirass. Notice how small the Historex cuirass is for comparison.

That is a Ted Heath face.... Anyway, I made the face fuller and added a Historex tricorne at a rakish angle.

Then I cut up a couple of metal heavy horses and knocked up a rearing horse pose. Surprising quite easy to saw thru the metal pieces. Deciding to use a Historex horse head as these large horses were drawn with smaller refined heads in many classical paintings.
