You've been on fire lately :)

Looks like the guy with the umbrella had a laundry mistake, did he wash his uniform with the Missu's red brassiere? :D

Apart from him, ;) they look very splendid in their whites.

Cheers

Great looking bunch. Tsuba minatures, I presume?

Thanks chaps  :)

You've been on fire lately :)

Not having to work has helped that considerably  :) Back tomorrow though  :?

It's not called the Red Planet for nothing you know, he's been on extended campaign in the mountains and has only just got back to take these new troops under his wing (honestly though I painted him ages ago and I think I used a different ink  lol ).

Great looking bunch. Tsuba minatures, I presume?

Copplestone as already mentioned  :)

cheers

Great work on the train. I've just picked up some Tamiya dark green spray, I'll be glad if I fan get similar results.

Troops look great too, it's amazing what you can do with the right primer.

I have several ideas for more trains but I've got to be careful it doesn't turn into a model railway set up  lol

Now that wouldnŽt be the worst thing that could happe, IŽd say...

Beautiful train that is really admirable. I like your conversions and the nice effect you got by drybrushing. Very, very good and of course as good as mine, but a different approach. IŽm glad to see yours finished now!

I guess I cannot stop myself from pointing out the importance of railway in industrialized warfare and the disproportionate absence of it on wargaming tables....
I admit it got better during the last years, but still....

Thanks again chaps  :)

Andrew, you need to be patient with it and shake it for a good two/three minutes before hand and you'll get good results. Don't be too worried if on the first coat there's too much over spray as it will dry great and flat  :)

Thanks Michi, I had the pictures of yours for inspiration, just need the decals for the sides  :)

Those troops are lovely. Just an ink wash over a basecoat eh? I'll have to remember that as I hate painting whites.
