    And the Redcoats re-inforcements have arrived!.
    I decided to use the Army painter color primer Dragon Red, i just walked into my man cave (garage), saw the spray can and said to myself why not?
    It gives the figures a nice mid-dark red tone , i let it dry and then i wash the coats with GW carrobourg crimson, that is a great deep dark rich red to bring the tone of the coat a tad dark and deposit the darkest pigments on the creaces.
    i will start the faces tomorrow.

    Hello folks, i received today the 2 officers flagbearers from triangle miniatures (front rank figs) here in the US.
    I ordered 2 of the same and made slight modificatiins to one of them.
    i clipped the head off on one of them, and reaced for spare head without hat that i bought from front rank.
    And cut it the top hilt of the sword on the scabbard, added only the blade from another spare sword i had and made the proper modification on it.
    the result make sme very happy since such a slight and quick modification resembles an almost entirely different figure.
    i am awaiting the flags from Flagdude.

    Hello folks,
    the flags from flag dude arrived yesterday.
    Nothing wrong with the flags but i decided to create a more stand out look on the flags and paint them over.
    the y are almost ready, just few touch ups and the flags and officers and will place them on the battlefield.

    Oh boy.....you have made real progress there Daniel.
    These two fellows are rather special, even compared to the high standard which is your normal approach.
    Really super duper.

    Excellent Daniel, or in our vernacular - a bloody bonzer effort. How big is this diorama going to be?

    Thanks Chris!
    the diorama comprise 4 panels of 12"x 12" ( each of the 4 panels), so, yes, it'ds a little big but not as much as some war game tables i've seen.
