More French Revolution and other stuff

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!

More French Revolution and other stuff

Post by Duke of Plaza-Toro » Sat Sep 15, 2012 1:37 am

I have added some more to my fledgling blog - this time a work in progress. I'm half way through a battalion of regular infantry for the French c.1792-93. The 29th Régiment de Ligne, the old Dauphin regiment, to be precise.

More details on the blog - http://worldcrisisinminiature.wordpress.com/ and if you scroll down there's a review /article about a couple of the 4Ground laser cut buildings I've been messing around with.

You are most kind gentlemen :D

Sheepman / Dave - my oldest school friend lives in your neck of the woods (near Hexham). No plans for a trip to Old Blighty at the moment, but I always visit him and his family when I'm over. If I do, I'll give you a heads up - even if it's just a quick visit for a cup of tea and a look at your collection!

You'd be more than welcome John, a couple of reprobates, sorry lads from the Border Rievers club live in Hexham. Keep in touch.
