    I stsrted working on another 3 fusiliers, the coats are almost done.
    As for the cartridge boxes, i have paint them on vallejo read leather as a base color and tried GW screamer pink with a well diluted mix and apploed few washes of it with a better result than carrobourg crimson.... 20170424_133801.jpg

    I don't know how you get so much detail on these tiny figures. The drummer is superb by the way.

    Hi Daniel. Yes, that was exactly what I meant. Great. I like the linkage of the action, the reaction of the characters. Very nice, dramatic and action diorama :). Thanks I did not have to look :)

    While i am almost done with these fusiliers, i decided to start getting this general ready.
    The original figure is the Prince of Soubise-Rohan, a French Marshal.
    I will just paint a random Marshal for this ocassion.

    I layed the base colors on the officer.
    I will replace the baton for a sword to make it more suitable for the action.... 20170430_012505.jpg 20170430_012513.jpg

    Hi Daniel

    That firing line looks great and lethal !..a lovely bit of work .

    Like the addition of a Marshall ...leading from the front ...I quite like the baton but as you said not in keeping with battle!

    Happy painting

    Good afternoon Kev, yes!, i love the baton .
    Unfortunately the figure does not have the lace on it for to be a Marshal , perhaps it was a simpler coat worn in battle but my thinking of jist painting a regular officer on horseback is that a Marshal.would have been with the general.staff for the most part, and i don't have the space nor the figures to create that.
    Plus a marshall wouldn't be so close to the volleys from the enemy.
    The breast plate and coat makes a perfect figure for officer.
    They wore a breasplate in battle.
    Cheers my friend
