Hello,yes, that may be a idea to add a card or a plate and paint the missing figures on that.
For myself I perfer 30mm figures. I have painted one or two bigger ones but was not quiet happy with that. It is interesting to see how this all develops, how more painters switch to bigger figures and paint them like real art works on a very high level. Thinking of my own painting I´m would more think of craft then of an art.

Relief engravings of paintings or paintings are a special type of engraving.
Failure often occurs on the second side of the figure, or in the 2D perspective.
There you could pick tin and silver plates.
I am not a friend of such works.
But the painting is well implemented. :o

Christoph,
This would be  good idea of conversion, add legs of the back horses, and as Eric pointed out perhaps with a plasti card on the back and a painting of them ....

An idea to investigate for me if I can isolate the back image from the front ... and guees the horses positions...
(I need to find a person who can help me in this ..)

Hello Eric,
very nice painted, really great. I like the painting of the two horses in the front.

For the figure itself: when I frist saw it some weeks ago I was impressed, a very dynamic group. But after a few moments I reallist that there is something missing. You see the heads of four horses but only the legs of two. In the original painting the legs of the horses were coverd by some persons on the ground. It is a bit sad that this persons left out or not had been replaced by the missing horse legs.

The figure is based on a Rubens painting, itself a copy of a lost Da Vinci fresco
