Naps Light company and Artillery

OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

Naps Light company and Artillery

Hi,
many moons ago I painted up a Victrix Centre Company.

So now its time for some reinforcements. Again Wargames standard figs.

We have a 4 man light company and some artillery.

All figures based as per the new owners request.

Got to say that the Victrix Artillery box was a poor quality kit. Parts numbered incorrectly, poor instructions and some really bad air - didn't make it a fun kit to build.

As usual all comments, good or bad, welcome.

Thanks

Gazza.

Garry,

The wee baldy guy with the telescope is just full of character. Imrie, O'Brien and myself would be proud of him and would be looking at a bulk bald discount.

You beat me to it Jim!
As soon as I saw the chap with the telescope I thought he looked like Jim judging how far his troops had to advance and how many hours that would take :lol:

That's a nice paint job for a basic wargames standard Garry.

Hi Gazza,

Very well painted indeed, I especially like the artillery and crew.
I myself have purchased the Victrix Artillery box, but I'll be using the crew in the belgic shako for Waterloo.

Dave,

If that artillery officer were Jim, he'd be looking through the wrong end of the telescope and telling his crew's.....nothing to worry about lad's those lancers are miles away....doh. :lol:

Regards...........Ray.
