Here's what I've got so far on mine.  I think they're ready for final cleanup and then a marathon epoxy/rivet session.  I will of course gladly accept suggestions.

Those look fantastic Froggy. No suggestions from me. You know what you're doing.  :)

Rather than continue to hijack Dr Mathias's thread for his excellent vehicles, I have created my own thread >here<.

Absolutely stunning and inspiring job on these figs and vehicles.  I hope to paint up my own little Hinterland force someday.  Right now I'm thinking of something very similar with a bit more red like the 1st Leibhusaren.

Again great stuff!  Look forward to more additions to the force.

Gentlemen and Ladies,
I was sorting through some boxes of old photographs and discovered a few rare images of Princess Victoria Luise's Leibhusaren No.2 on maneuvers, prior to the outbreak of hostilities. I have done some preliminary research, and to my knowledge these photos have not been shown before. Enjoy,
Dr. Mathias

I've been wanting to copy this idea since you posted the original pictures.  Sunday my daughter and I worked on making two of the steam carriages ourselves.  I'll be painting them this week as work permits.  I'll post some pictures soon.

I WONDERED how this thread resurfaced.  :o

Buck, delighted you've found a way to enlist assistance. As I've said before, about the closest I got to sharing gaming with my lass was hot-bedding at conventions.

Matt, if you visit this again, and you've done something with the few I sent you, please share!

Good fortune as you work on yours Buck- I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Thank you for the interest gentlemen, and I have a variant in the works as I write this. Too many unfinished projects...

Inspired by this work, I made my own coaches.  See  http://bucksurdu.com/blog/

@Matt One who gets NOTHING done can not in good conscience rush someone who's done so much! When you can, when you can...

@Buck Really, that's maroon? I guess my monitor needs adjusting. Had a bit of a seeth: 'Too...  Much...  Pink...'

lol

However, having experienced both a daughter AND experiencing a granddaughter, I'd have to excuse ANYTHING.

Damn untamed forces of nature...
