I've had my bombard sitting in a box for two years now... reckon its gonna stay there a bit longer after this.

Thanks chaps

Come on Rob. You know the Bishop of Carlisle needs a bombard...

Not quite.... Richard III made Carlisle castle into a massive gun platform, apparently, so the bombard will eventually be done in red and yellow city militia colours.

Eventually...

I guess the bombard is 'okay'

(Speaking from jealousy

Very, very fine work- amazing really! )

Just finished reading your article, I bought it purely on the strength of your weathering technique which I hope to replicate when I eventually get round to painting any one of the 6 guns I have waiting in bags - I have put them off for a few years now but hopefully this will give me some ready inspiration.

Really nice figures, the photography shows your srisp and colourful painting at its best.

Thanks Stuart and all

I know they almost certainly weren't allowed to get that rusty, but I just prefer the more lived-in look

Amazing work as ever capt. Your attention to detail is quite extraordinary.

I've just torn open the first issue of WSS from the subscription my brother got me for Christmas; time to dive in and see those other pictures of your work

The bombard is jaw-dropping.

So what are the chances of a group shot anytime soon?

Once I've finished the last couple of mounted figures. I do need to see all 24 together for my own sanity

I think my next project will be a late 15th C. Portuguese army for North Africa and the Castilian Succession War.

Hi Kingscarbine,
If so, have you seen/got this book? Very useful for dress and equipment (apart from being a fantastic bit of art).
I would strongly recommend it.
Simon.
