  1. I have re done Two of my older pics - they where taken without direct illumination just a small torch to get some shadows. OC.
  2. Thank you kindly brother, it is the history of the battalions Lieutenant Colonel that I am very interested in as I would love to add him close to the farm around the kitchen garden as I believe some of the battalion who escaped the Cuirassiers ran there. OC.
  3. Thank you kindly Richard, I may have read that book - I read a few over the years as I have always had a lot of love for the Shar. OC.
  4. I was doing some reading up on the fate of the Luneberg Battalion that met their fate at the swords of the French Cuirassiers when they marched down the slope in line formation to attack the 54th and 55th Ligne that was attacking LHS, I understand over 300 hundread tropps who was lead by a Leutenant Colonel marched down that day, the question I do not have the answr to despite much searching - was he killed in action or survived - did he take shelter in LHS - was he dis mounted or still on his horse? Will be interesting to find out as he could possibly be another addition to my build . OC.
  5. Good evening all, well this has started again - I decided to have a go at re top coating all my figures (about 60) that have already been painted, but have retained some slight sheen to the paintwork, so I got my bottle of Lucky Ultra Matt and (((Shook))) the living daylights out of it, then using my largest best brush I carefully brushed over them with a thin smooth application - I have done about Ten at a go and think the finish is better. I will take some pics when they are all done so I can do a group photo.. OC.
  6. Good to see you back Denis, sorry to hear about your situation - hope you get that roof sorted soon. OC.
  7. Hi there all, I decided to have another mess about with my photo files - so in my Lightroom I cropped a few then lifted the light levels added some contrast - Black levels - Colour and reduced the High lights then I sent them into my Topaz de noise before saving back into Lightroom where they had some selective sharpening and saved back into my files. Hope you enjoy. OC.
  8. How did I miss this build - serious face palm from me - I will follow along with much interest - lovely job. OC.
  9. Glad to see you back on this - its going to be a really nice display piece when finished - keep up the momentum. OC.
  10. What you could do (Dont know if you have any Tamiya Tape) is to attach it around the edge of the decks where you want the railings to go, then place the railings touching the tape - but gently, then remove the tape (gently) when set, this might help to keep the railings in place till set. OC.
