We've paired the British Life Guard 1815 — a Black Eagle Miniatures bust of a Napoleonic cavalryman, circa Waterloo — with a set of essential brushes and a turned wooden display base, so there's nothing else to work out and nothing missing when you sit down to paint.A bust is a forgiving first subject: the larger 1/12 scale gives you room to learn the fundamentals — base coats, shading and highlights, and your first go at painting a face — with fewer parts to assemble and plenty of surface to practise on. The Alex Paints Essentials brushes give you the right shapes to start with, and the wooden base turns your finished piece into something to be proud of on the shelf.What's in the boxBritish Life Guard 1815 — 1/12 scale resin bust (Black Eagle Miniatures)Alex Paints Essentials 4-brush setTurned wooden display baseBuy them separately and it's £40.40.
