Thanks for the kind comments chaps, always appreciated

Jeff, you've done so much good stuff that I think I've reached the point again where I've run out of things to say about it. There are only so many ways to phrase "I like this." But I know you like to feed off the positive feedback (don't we all), so it would be churlish of me to post nothing. Please take this as my positive comment for this round, and if I fail to post every time you paint something new, just assume I forgot to say anything or can't think what to say. I severely doubt it would be because I didn't like something you did.

[Jeff965]

Totally get that Plynkes, I'm thinking perhaps I should do a few more tutorials (the one for the bluecaps seem to have been recieved well) or maybe an AAR from the games we play, it may generate some posts on rule interpretations etc.
Just posting pics of stuff I've painted can get a little stale after a while.
Though it does help me motivate myself to get figures done 

[Plynkes]

Oh, I'm not criticising, Jeff. Please do continue posting your photos. No need to change anything you are doing.  The only thing that is getting stale is my replies.

Will do and thanks matey , though I have been thinking of branching out a bit

Some AARs would be nice. It’s great to be able to follow the figures progress from the painting table to the game. To share in their fortune or not as the case maybe.

[Hu Rhu]

I would second the AAR but also the tutorials.  Whilst I can't paint as well as you I have followed your last tutorial and improved my standard a little.  Kepp up the good work.

They are gorgeous! Absolutely cracking paint job on fantastic figures. I'm finishing another brigade of mutineers first but I've already started on my 93rd regiment (36 men) as well. Just the faces done, and I hope to do the boat coats tomorrow.
The Sutherland tartan is quite sombre so will probably be a little easier that the tartan Mc Kenzie/ Seaforth trews on the 78th.
In due time I suppose Iron Duke will do the 79th Cameron which is a little more colourful and combined with their light blue- greyish shirts will look superb. Looking forward to these and to see what masterpieces you will make of those.

[Jeff965]

We'll that's the 93rd completed, painted the command pack which includes two Officers on foot, two Sergeants, two Ensigns a piper and a mounted Colonel Ewart.
I've taken a couple of photos of all the packs together except I've exchanged Col Ewart for a different mounted Officer and I've left out the two ensigns (ID will add their own flags and horses and will complete the basing). I'm hoping that ID will take some photos of them when finished and if they do I'll post some up here.
These figures had a large pallette of colours and took a long time to paint but I really enjoyed painting them. They have a very distinctive look and will hopefully stand out on any table they play on.
No more tartan (for a while anyway )
