  1. Evening all, a bit more progress tonight - I have been carrying on with the detail painting on 2nd and 1st KGL - takes so long even to work on Five at a time - the Sixth one is having some time out for swearing, lol - have also done a bit of shading on the faces - not quite as good as the Perry ones as the moulded details are not quite as crisp. OC.
  2. Nah I know Chris - he will have his sanding block with him even on the lake. OC.
  3. You sanded the bugger - you could have warned us with dicky hearts.😁 OC.
  4. I tried one of those once - took me a month to paint our living room and the snoring did my head in - seriously though that's a nice finish. OC.
  5. Thank you Edward, fiddly little things tuckking the brush around some of the details, have to use my finest brush. OC.
  6. Evening all, right the table is in the box - will be tackled after the figures are finished - talking of figures more detail painting, I have been doing basically the same as the others Buff and Black coloured belts and Buff coloured haversacks, also I have painted on the shoulder ruffs with a few loaseded layers of Black paint. OC.
  7. This is a French farm kitchen 19th century table similar to what I have - mine are seperate tables and benches. Not my pic. OC.
  8. Hi all, thanks for all the guesses - I should have more clear what they are - they are Two wooden farm kitchen tables with Four Wooden benches, The 2nd KGL found them in the Kitchen dragged them out and out them put them on the inside wall close to the orchard corner to get some hight for firing as @Edwardkenway said from the loopholes or over the wall. OC.
  9. Excellent work Denis - gonna be a Good One. OC.
  10. Evening all, progress is going well all my KGL 1st/2nd Riflemen are now made and the painting process starts, the first Five of the new batch have been primed and had their Green jackets and faces and hands painted. Also these bad boys arrived this morning - any guesses where they are to go in my dio?🤔 OC.
  11. Glad the turned up at long last - that saga has been going on for ages - we were all worried that Water would have dried up by the time they arrived - imagine the scene you sitting in your shiny new boat on a dry bed. OC.
  12. Evening all, I managed to get some more KGL troops done tonight - I am getting a few decent poses out of then now, this includes Three dead/wounded, that in itself was difficult as I had to heat then distort some of the legs to get the right position, also the underside needed flattening a bit, I have Five more left to make then it will be priming/painting time. OC.
