Senegalese - Forgotten and Glorious

[tim1966]

Here's my first attempt at painting for quite a while (more years than I care to remember - or can remember even!). First go at using acrylics too.

The figures are by Forgotten and Glorious and are superb - hopefully my skills will improve (painting and photography  ) and I will do these figures justice (along with the lovely Gripping Beast range  )

Oh I like those, I think you've done them justice.

Very nice work you've done those figures proud.

Nice work. The Senegalese head with the Dizzy Gillespie soul patch was the perfect choice for your trumpeter.

[tim1966]

Thanks for all your kind comments - I'm really enjoying painting again. Zinderneuf - I did pick the head with the goatee beard as I thought the bugler needed some character - Dizze Gillespie indeed  !

I wasn't too happy with these so I've done a bit more work on them - made them dusty, more highlights, more work on the bases - a small improvement I think.

Great work.

Nice painting and nice looking figures too. I am fighting temptation since I became aware of this company and their figures.

I wish my painting was even close to your level.
Good job.

tim1966,

These are beautifully painted figures;  I especially like your shading techniques.  Wonderful job!

Nice miniatures and paintjob, might I ask what colours you used for the uniform?

[tim1966]

I used Vallejo piants - English uniform as a base and then Khaki for highlights wiht black and white added to each for grades of shade. Alos used Navy blue for some trousers. I wish I had pianted them all the original Dark Blue now - maybe try that with some others. Or maybe some Foriegn Legion and then I would need a mustard khaki. Thanks again for all the kind comments.
