1st Guards, Dixon 25/28mm:
Thank you for your comment. (Sorry to say...) I'm not a fantastic painter, but - after more than 40 years of painting metal figures - I can state that I'm "experienced" . About the Dixon figures: they are smaller and less bulky than FR (but more bulky than Warfare or Ebor and about 26/27 mm if such scale would excist), but Dixon has two different types of figures: the above "Marlborough range" (also available with "brimmed hats" in his WSS range) and a range of "older" sculpts (see my post viewtopic.php?f=13&t=5429 ). Should you be interested in the figures pictured above but with brimmed hats, download both his WSS & MA catalogues and just look for figures using the same body but with hats instead of the MA tricorne. As far as I'm concerned, I'm very pleased with the Dixons (but I'm a fan of the Warfare ones as well - I have some and Ebor will follow one day too ) and Dixon's "army deals" are VERY good value for money.Gunfreak wrote:I'm pleasantly suprised by the Dixon figures, either they are very good figures, or you are a fantastic painter(mabye both)
They look close to FR in scale and quality.
In order to answer this correctly, I need to explain my fastpaint method to you...Gunfreak wrote:Can I ask for the colors you used on the reds?
Thank you. It works well for me and I find it especially fast & handy for painting faces (at which I'm not very good otherwise ).yar68 wrote:That's an interesting way to (paint) figures Rudi. It certainly looks very effective.
