Ok y'all,


 Here are some pictures of my 120 MM verlinden Mounted JEB Stuart. I painted it in acrylics then finished it with artists oils. All the straps, and tack are made from lead foil. I mounted a small confederate flag and crossed cavalry sabres on the base, which is two layers of oak, each layer finished with a different stain.


It's a present for my wife, who's been after me for a long time to build her a horse. All that's left to do is fabricate a plexiglass cover for it.


It was my first horse, and I had a good tikme doing it. It looks more like me than Stuart, but what the heck!!!! Let me know what you think.

VERY GOOD!!


It looks like some of the Confederate art I have seen in FineScale magazine years ago. Of course, being related to Confederate veterans, I am always happy to see a fine piece like this.

Thanks for the kind words Lloyd and 4MM. I also have Reb kin, as well as Yank kin. And yes, I am saving my Confederate money!!
