These figures just need their bases doing, Rangers have had sand glued on & Brits have just been glued to their washers. |
The Brits in front of the other Rangers which are in a much earlier stage of painting, but I stuck some sand on just 'cause I was doing the others. |
First three members of "Dog Company" on their own without their wee friends :) |
Anyone want anything painted for money? I'm out of a job at the moment...

gorgeous painting, I envy people who still have time/will to take their brush and paint (barely have time for board wargames).
ReplyDeleteThe british soldiers in particular are well constrasted and fascinating, rangers are good too.
Thanks so much Brax.
DeleteTime is something I have quite a bit of at the moment. I don't get much wargaming in of late though, unless you count some PC gaming.
Superb work John. I really like the shading folds in the BD's.
ReplyDeleteSorry to here about your current state of employment. Model on!
Cheers Paul. Yep, I've painted quite a bit of battledress now, hopefully getting the hang of it ;)
DeleteGreat stuff John! Right down to painting the map! Outstanding!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nick. The Wartime Miniatures are great little sculpts making them easier to paint IMO.
DeleteStay Special,
John
I like them very much John. These Wartime miniatures look very good. Too bad they are located in Australia.. nice work on the rangers also. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them T. You can get the Wartime Miniatures through Elhiem in the UK too, they really are excellent little figures.
DeleteSupplication made. Expect action. Nice kit especially officers. I see you did the most dangerous type...with maps
ReplyDeleteGreetings oh bearded one!
DeleteAction? Should I wear my tin hat?
Glad you liked that British Staff. The painting of maps was facilitated by Wartime Miniatures having a handy grid sculpted into the surfaces...
Thought just occurred. Quote for command base vignette for Wellington and Paget - a la cinema - for up coming Waterloo bi-centennial punch up needed. Contact asap.
ReplyDeleteWhat, more thoughts?
DeleteWellington & Paget you say, mounted or on foot? Unfortunately I don't have the appropriate figures in my stash at the moment, you would have to supply. Email me at: jacksarge777 at gmail dot com so we can discuss further.
Amazing Stuff! I really love the works! Just out of curiosity, how long on average does it take you to finish a figure? Or for that matter, this whole set of figures?
ReplyDeleteHi Jiaqi. Thanks for your kind words.
DeleteI'm really not sure how long it takes me, as I do not take much notice of the time when painting. I am not a speed painter, unless it is really necessary.
I see. great work nonetheless.
DeleteSo i am guessing these are done over a period of time yeah? Not like over one day yes?
Yes, over a period of time, it depends on how inspired to paint I am feeling :)
