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!

Hi all,
Just uploaded the latest unit onto my new-ish blog (
www.steve-nationsinarms.blogspot.com). You can see what inspired it in the League of Augsburg Gallery - imitation is, as they say, the sincerest form of flattery!!). Can't wait for the arrival of BLB2 to put these units through their paces.
Cheers
Steve

Steve,
That's a nice little blog, lots of info as well as photo's, I'm paintind up the same period at the moment, but using 15mm, it's good to see other gamers figures & to see other peoples idea's and interpretations of a period with too many - in it, it gives me more insentive the get the brush out. Keep it up!
Take a look at my blog if you so desire, it may give you a few ideas too!

Hi Steve, it was good to meet up with you and a few other forum members at Partizan on Sunday and seeing SOME of your mates 16,000 Napoleonic figures but these dragoons look lovely.
Cheers
Dave

Lovely stuff Steve. Now that I am back home for a couple of weeks I will continue with my GA refresh!

Thanks for the comments guys - very encouraging. This period, which is relatively new to me, seems to be growing in popularity.

Steve.. lovely stuff and very motivational.. I tried to post nice comments but your filter doesn't like me for some reason!

Don't know why that happened Barry, but thanks anyway - it's the thought that counts!! I am sure I will be even more motivated to press on with the collection when BLB 2 and the new range of figures are out.
