Thank you so much Gary for saying that and for looking through my build - it means a lot. OC. -
Amazingly Good mate - did I see a set of steps with hand rails at this scale 😲 just don't know how you do it - must have eyes like a hawk and fingers like a surgeon. OC.

You should do a christening party when you name her - perhaps invite some of the gang round from here. OC.

Evening all, still more progress this evening - I worked on the hands and Muskets, only took me another 3 Hours to do the group, I wont put any pics on as they must be quite repetitive - will wait till all of the Tirailleurs are finished. OC.

Good to see you back - keep up the splendid work. OC.

I have found these on the net black/white pics but they show light bands possibly white. OC.

Thanks Ken, I am quite looking forward to working with MDF its all laser cut but I will super detail it as Its a bit 2 dimensional, I will be adding a floor in the farm house - so I can put some of the figures firing from the bedroom windows, also with some of the brick detail (its flat so I will try to show the mortar lines better) I will probably work on each section while they are flat before I glue the sections together. Then there will be the painting/weathering to do. OC.

Hiya Kevin, no mate still a fair way to go yet - I am about a Third of the way there - I am hoping to make about 100-150 figures, it will be quite busy in the space I have - but that was how it was back then. OC.
-
Some news (exciting I hope) when I have finished these bunch and now possibly the drummer boy - I will be (wait for it)..........be starting on the farm complex - base - scenery, I will have to rearrange the table to create more room as the base is quite large at 3 feet by nearly 2 feet, and I still need room for my lamp. OC.

Thanks Mark, I have been able to track down the painting details for them for each unit in the 54/55th ligne regiment, so I should be able to include even just the one. OC.
-
Thanks Edward, I might include one then. OC.
-
I have a couple in my stash - I will have to find out if any where close to LHS during the attacks - I have not read anything so far about any drummers being involved in the attack. OC.
-
Evening all, some more progress in my Three hour schedule - the vest are painted an off White/Buff colour and the trousers dull White. Just to get an idea of the size of them - they are ontop of Admiralty Paints small tubs. OC.

She is looking amazing Craig, all the more impressive by your building skill - like others have said - its looks like a really nice 1/350 scale kit not 1/700. OC.

Looking real good so far - I have never heard that trick and to be honest I would find in uncomfortable to use the hover on the floor while wearing womens tights......cough cough cough....😆 OC.
