Wonderful work as usual. What photography set up do you use?

A crap one. 

Two cheap ass desk lamps from Argos with daylight halogen bulbs in that have to be placed so close to the models they're only barely out of shot.

Hi James,

Please do have a look. It would be very helpfull to know.

Bollocks, got that wrong I'm afraid. I mixed up two photos of different flags 

It's the regimental name in Chinese characters written by the Emperor not a number, my apologies

It should be a bit squarer with purple edging instead of blue 

cheers

I still need to do a slight fix though! No one noticed I put my decals on upside down.

Time to dig up this old thread again seeing as I've just finished painting a few more packs for Tsuba. All Russians, Ensigns (minus flags for now), musicians, orderlies and wounded, and some more firing troopers.







With all the RJW stuff I've painted being spread throughout this thread I should point out that I've got an album of all the finished pics in my gallery on my website.

Splendid

Wonderful brushwork.

[Andym]

замечательный!!

(Apparently, according to google translate, that means wonderful! Apologies if I've just called you son of a turnip or something!!!)

Fabulous tonality. Really well done

Completely gorgeous. Wonderful blending of colours on what could otherwise be some fairly drab uniforms.
