  3. After @Egilman request - here is what I have completed so far - OC.
  4. Thank You kindly EG, Yep I will have to display what I have made so far. OC.
  5. From when I built my HMS Warspite - I think the key is lots of thin coats (ok mine was acrylics) But I found I could brush along the demarcation lines without it causing a build up. OC.
  6. Thats looking fine mate - when both sides are fully done it will look a treat. OC.
  7. Same as you Lou, I got my idea from the movies - those swashbuckling ones showing old castles with Errol Flyn sword fighting. OC.
  8. Yep I have my binoculars with me - perhaps Lou could use a set. OC.
  9. Lou I would have thought they would have had those burners - didn't they use burning straw with pitch? OC.

  15. Hi Edward, yep I'm going by this plate and a few online searches also in another forum I chat to a few reinactors taht were from the KGL regiment that was at 2015 Waterloo show, I try to keep them uniform but with a little bit of variety. OC.
  16. Just wanted to say - I know so far they are just figures and look all the same - but it will change when I can make them part of a dio scene - I promise. OC.
  17. Dont know if this will help much Kevin, its from Pembroke in Wales I took the photo - it shows the town fortification wall that extended out from the castle and wrapped around the town giving the people some defence. OC.
  18. Would the waterway be fortified I wonder? how about some ramparts? I would imagine most castles and fortified areas close to the castle would be so, infact I have seen that myself on some of our old hols. OC.
  19. Evening all, abit more progress with the lads, I did my normal shading on the faces and hands - basically just using the wash from a brush and runing it over so it settles in the details (between the fingers - side of nose - frown lines - around mouth) then it was time to paint the trousers in thier London Grey, I finished off tonights painting by painting wood parts of the rifles -delicate work - next off will be the metal parts including the bayonets. OC.
