Hi all,
WOW, I can not believe it has been two months already with very little or no updates of my painting. We took some time out over Christmas and New Year, which we really enjoyed and just when I was ready and raring to go full steam ahead with my painting a flu bug caught up with me. I have not been ill for some years now but, oh my, that one really pulled the rug from underneath my feet. I was flat out for two weeks and it took me another week or so to feel one hundred percent again. Well, we all not getting any younger, lol ;)
Anyway, I was finally able to finish a commission for the Perry Miniatures which was released at the beginning of February, therefore I am now able to share some more pictures of the Napoleonic Danish / Norwegian figures with you. I painted one pack of the Musketeers for them but my Version depicts them as members of the Landwehr / Militia with black cross belts and green plumes. I also tackled a pack of the Norwegian and Danish Grenadiers.
I really enjoyed painting a different Napoleonic Nation for a change as the red on these figures were suppose to be a bit darker than the "Red Brick" of the British Uniforms. Only a little challenge as I used the first four shades of the Andrea Red Paint set but also added additional highlights with the last two colours of the Reaper's Blood Red Triad.
There is still one Group missing though which has not been released and I have to wait to share these with you.
Here are the links to some more pictures:
