  1. I don't know much about horses but just googled "Galloping Horses" and some do show a similar pose with both front legs bent at the knee / pointing backwards, and the one back leg further infront than the other. Does that sound right kind of looks it in this internet pic - OC.
  2. Thank you Ken, I will gat some heat on the rear most front leg and bend it forward, possibly same with the hidden back leg - bend it back a wee bit. OC.
  3. Evening all, right - primer brushed over all the "newbies" then I decided to start with one of the Hussars chargers, this one was painted a dark Redish Brown, then I picked out a few of his details then a few rough washes ot bring out the shadows, he will have some dry bruhed dust around his lower limbs before I paint the saddle. OC.
  4. I will be doing a bit of alterations to the French Colonel's horse (with heat) to bend some of the legs into more of a standing postures, as at the moment its in a racing stance. OC.
  5. She is looking amazing mate, is that a scale figure towards the bow? Glad your wife is on the mend mate. OC.
  6. Evening all, Two 10th Regiment Hussars and the French 54th Ligne Colonel. OC.
  7. This is my total count in my stash so far minus a couple of a throw aways - KGL 2nd - 71 KGL 5th - 71 KGL Major Barring 1 French - 58 French Colonel 1 British Hussar 2 But not all the 5th are made as they where not in overwhelming numbers compared to the 2nd KGL. OC.
  8. That would be quite the scene, yep they are awaiting their heads - I broke off for the night and will add them tomorrow. OC.
  9. Evening all, I have started Three more little fellows - a 10th Hussar, a 54th Ligne Sapper and a 54th Colonel. OC.
  10. The history behind my latest post is - during the attacks by the 54th and 55th the Battlion's had different ranks of officers upto a Colonel who was with the regiment leading them, he was on his horse during the attacks, also the regiments had a few Grenadier Sappers who tried to attack the gates at the front of the farm but were shot at by the 2nd KGL hiding over the wall. OC.
  11. Two other additions I will add that I have in my stash is - a Mounted French 54th ligne Colonel overseeing the attack on the Farm, and a 54th Grenadier Sapper who will be placed dead with his Axe close to the main gates. OC.
  12. Evening all, I have been through all my moulds and made up the last Five French figures and another wondead one - they will receive the same as the other bunch. OC.
  13. That would be an interesting video log of it when its done, don't know how it could be done though? OC.
  14. Ratlines how I remember Ratlines - best advice just take your time and don't try to rush them. OC.
  15. Thank you kindly Mark, I hope to build it so there is different pockets of action going on in the different parts of the dio, that kind of tell a story. OC.
  16. Thank you Andrew, so far I think I have made about Sixty 2nd and 5th KGL in and around the farm complex, I have about another Fifteen I can make, then there will be my Three Cuirassiers about Fifty or so French 54th and 55th ligne will be made (but may try to add some more if I have the space) and I will add a British Hussar or Two and my Five resin 5th KGL wounded. Will keep adding them till there is no more space. OC.
  17. Evening all, next bunch of French started - primmed then hands/hands basic covering. OC.
  18. Just on a side note - the invasion of Belgium started today when Napoleon crossed the border with his troops leading to the different battlles leading up to Waterloo on the 18th June. OC.
  19. Incredible work mate - precision and super fine detailing bar none. OC.
