He was just st at an open table so I redesigned and put him inside the field-battle type tent. i did enjoy painting all the tools. one of my older ones. I can no longer sit at an easel to paint and am unable to do a lot in oils as it takes so long to get set up, I don't have long enough to paint to achieve anything as I get tired so quickly.
