  1. Found another Excellent video on the 200th anniversay event at Waterloo best played with sound up (Epic Stuff) OC.
  2. Evening all, right that's Five more KGL Light finished and put away in the box - ready for my next instalment. Oh, I also gave one of the chaps and eye patch after he received and eye injury. OC.
  3. Thank you kindly mate - I still have someway to go till I get them better - getting the faces right is the challenge as most figure painters use different shades to hightlight/shadow the face and some use a fine Black pointed pen for the eyes. OC.
  4. The only kit I ever built in 1/700 was a Dragon type 42 Destrorer RN, I had to fabricate the front bulwarks to replicate the only version to have it HMS Edinburgh, I never bothered with any PE for it as it was my first road back into modelling. Sorry for hijacking your thread mate. OC.
  5. Im also here Edward - wont be long before the rest of the clan turn up. OC.
  6. 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.
  7. Nah I know Chris - he will have his sanding block with him even on the lake. OC.
  8. You sanded the bugger - you could have warned us with dicky hearts.😁 OC.
  9. 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.
  10. Thank you Edward, fiddly little things tuckking the brush around some of the details, have to use my finest brush. OC.
  11. 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.
  12. This is a French farm kitchen 19th century table similar to what I have - mine are seperate tables and benches. Not my pic. OC.
  13. 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.
  14. Excellent work Denis - gonna be a Good One. OC.
