My 10mm American Civil War Project

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!

My 10mm American Civil War Project

Post by womble67 » Thu Apr 09, 2015 10:30 am

Like many other wargamers I'm nearly buried up to my neck in unpainted lead and never seem to be able to complete a project as I am constantly flipping from one project to another.

So I decided to hire a professional painter, to complete my ACW armies. The service I settled on was Turbil Miniatures which is run by a husband and wife team and they gave me an estimated turnaround time of 3 months. They also said they would give me regular progress updates.

So my first job is to clean up the miniature's and then post them to Turbil Miniatures so they can begin painting. As soon as I receive a progress report I will update this post.

Looking forward to seeing how this progresses, I have a 10mm ACW project in my unpainted pile at the moment, so the inspiration will be a great benefit to me!! :D

Okay as promised, I received an e-mail from Turbil Miniatures last night to inform me that they had started on my figures. I must admit I'm a little bit excited about this and can't wait to see the results.

Hi All
I received an e-mail from Turbil Miniatures today to inform me that my Union figures should be with me by the end of the week. To be honest I feel like a small boy again waiting for Santa to come to say I'm excited is an understatement.

Hi everyone
Sorry to the long delay in replying. But other more important things have been happening. I am now married, honeymoon etc. Anyway back to figures, I received my figures on 31 May 2015 I must say I'm very pleased with them.
