Title: Zulu War 17th Lancers
Post by: Gazjones on December 12, 2013, 04:00:36 PM

Hi Guys, I recently finished painting these little Empress miniatures beauties for a good friend of mine.
I used a crappy camera and i'm not much good with photoshop but you get the idea.
Hope you like em ;)

Those are very nicely painted, but the photography takes them to a whole new level. The backdrops are very affective and blend in seamlessly with the figures. Amazing how well the grass tufts you have used blend in with the real grass. Favourite has to be the final photo with Isandlwana in the background.

Stunning.  Both the painting on those great figures and the photography.

Well done, verrrrry nice!  :-*

I have some of these myself, but haven't been able to get the passion up to paint them as the officer seems like he is about to fall off his horse.
