Thanks Eric.  But no stripes for me!

Nicely detailed Mike, but did'nt you forgot the black stripes on the casaque ?


Mark, when everybody have finished his figure could you gather the pictures in one post so that we can have a general view of the works ?

Mike, Eric, thanks a lot.
I have looked at a lot of painters, and both of you in particular. Very different styles and much to be learnt from both. I am painting more and finding my way, really enjoying trying different colour mixes, different textures etc. I am pleased with this figure, although I look and see plenty of areas to improve. But you have to stop somewhere and move on to another figure.
I think I will always prefer the 30mm figures although the current trend seems to be moving away from these. Like you say Mike, let's keep the little ones out there.

This is very good. Just the right amount of detail on a 30mm figure. 
Particularly like the horse and the riders coat.
You should have a look at other figures in the set from Neckel. They are very impressive most engraved by Frank.
Keep the little blokes coming
Mike

By the way I now have an extra figure for this exciting campaign if anyone else is interested?  Send me a message with your address and I will send it on to you.  Your only obligation is to paint it and show it here as Charles and Eric have done beautifully.


I am adding a small gallery under BFFS projects for these.

Beautifully done Charles, like this one a lot.

P.S. I have the figures you sent me undercoated.  I am hoping to try a new approach to painting armor with them.
