Old Collingwood Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share #245 Posted August 17, 2020 Evening all, firstly a huge thanks to everyone showing interest in my little men, right I have started on the mext Two KGL defenders, the chunkier of the Two is the Victrix figure who will be a 5th line regiment and the other one is Perry 2nd Light Rifles. As you can see they are slightly different in shape with the Victrix being more chunky, anyway as I am dissplaying a few of the 5th without back packs - they require some work starting by shaping the backs to try to show some strap details, secondly there are cross support straps on the chest (these would be fixed to support the back packs straps) so these needed to be scrapped away (carefully) also over the shoulders near the arms again these straps needed scrapping away. Also some of these Victrix figures show cords hanging down (The 5th does not have these) so I had to carefully scrape these away and at the same time re shape some lower button panels, also I slimed the legs down a bit. On the Perry one again the back pack support starps were scrapped away (as the 2nd do not wear there packs in action) I have left the arms off to aid acess to the front of both. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share #246 Posted August 20, 2020 Evening all, this evening I was going to carry on with some figures but my modeling glasses decided to break on the bridge corner and the lens fell out - do you think I could repair the break, depsite them being plastic framed neither super glue or my revell plastic glue would repair the break. So I have had to stop till I can sort another pair out or check to see if my other illuminated magnifier is strong enough. I have a 2.00 x mag glasses I use for internet and TV and 3.00 x for my modeling, I thought things where going too well as I got my money back on that top coat (they eventually relented) so I was able to get a couple of jars of Acrylic paint. So will have to wait till the morning to see what happens. OC.

Good news on the top coat though 👍😁 I know, its weird they must use a special glue defence plastic, and I am sure not gonna tape them - dont want to look like that old Duckworth dude off corrie, no way. I may have found a fix - I have two different illluminated magnifiers one is a heavy jobby with a seperate light and glass, the other one is a plastic Halogen(I think) unit with the glass in the middle and one tiny extreme magnifier, I had an idea and had to try it (you know me)😉 I got the Plastic one under some light then got the other glass put them ontop of each other and tested with a figure underneath using my normal glasses I use for my laptop, hey pressto the combination of the two gave me a lot more magnification - I could even see the flaws in my painting (that needs reworking). Anyway I got the superglue out ran some around the edge and pressed down the top glass, it will still need some kind of clips to stop it falling away when I angle the arm.

Yep I hear you Ken, very tiny little loupe so hard to use it by the look of it, I think the combo of the two glasses will be ok as long as I can keep them fixed together - the superglue has kind of tacked them but as the glass ontop is ground glass and quite heavy - I fear if I move the arm at an angle it might break away - hence why i need to create a couple of clips that can be glued to hold the glass.

I appreciate that bro, I would never have known about that - one just assumes superglue will bond all plastics, and if not superglue then normal Revell plastic glue would have done it (I thought) learn something every day.

Louie da fly Posted August 21, 2020 Share #257 Posted August 21, 2020 OC, I'm gobsmacked by the quality of the paintwork on your figures. My dromon oarsmen are pretty much the same scale as yours, but the paintwork on mine is much more basic and plain - I haven't the skill to do the kind of shading you've done. (OTOH you didn't have to carve all yours! ) BTW, I don't know if anybody's mentioned it before, and at the risk of sending you off on another tangent, have you read "Death to the French" by C. S. Forester? It's a novel about a rifleman who gets separated from his unit during the British withdrawal to the Torres Vedras in the Spanish campaign, and lives off the land fighting the French until their retreat as the British advance, and he is able to rejoin his unit. Fictional (apparently) but with fascinating period detail of what it must have been like to serve as a rifleman at the time. mtaylor, Egilman, Edwardkenway and 1 other 4 Quote It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

Thank you kindly for the compliments ( after looking at them under higher magnification I can see many flaws that will need sorting) its that well know situation - the more you zoom in the more errors we find.
