Title: First Scots Regiments for the Peninsular
Post by: olicana on September 10, 2016, 04:11:29 PM

Well, thank God they're done. Still, they came out OK, and apart from one big mistake with the piper for the 92nd they came off first time.

Here are two pics, and a link to some more (closer ones) plus a few observations about artistic licence.

I hope you like them.

Excellent work, you are the king of batch painting :-* your self discipline must be second to none and the painting standard is top notch.

Really nice. I like the basing too. What is the green basing material?

It is Woodlan Scenics coarse turf. It's a mix of burnt grass (the green) and yellow grass. It is about a one part to two parts mix.

Superb! Love your painting style--they must really pop on the table! Which figure range are they from?

Great work  :-* only problem is every time I look at one of your threads I start suffering from "unit envy"  ;)
