Work has begun on the Pegasus SS set #2, however I am finding having to glue that soft sort of plastic a bit of a drag. The figures are nicely animated but fiddly- I should have resisted and picked up the Caesar Germans instead. I don't think I can bring myself to do peadot on them all, maybe spring Oak Leaf?
I have further increased my stocks of Vallejo paints with another order to Maelstrom Games, and am trialing the Vallejo Matt Varnish on some figures. I also placed a small order with Grubby Tanks for some splendid looking metal British to supplement my plastics- there's even a stretcher bearer team.
As always your comments & questions are welcome. Oh yeah, and thanks to all who have visited and bumped the blog over the 10,000 mark :) Enjoy.
Lovely job there mate. Fantastic, in fact. Little eagle on the uniforms 'n all. Oh, to be half as clever!

Hey JS, these are great, I really like the LW blue, and will be stealing some of your ideas,good work, thanks
ReplyDeleteCheers Dan & Nick.
ReplyDeleteDan I'd be happy for you to pinch ideas - I certainly take inspiration from your work. Did you notice Dan I'd trimmed back the oversized FG42s to give the impression of a rifle- the FG42s Italeri had sculpted were way out of scale, according to PSR 1.4m when they should've been 940mm.
