Believe me I know exactly how you feel.I'm a Historex buff myself and I'm in a constant "still 18" phase.Your drive and determination though exeed mine by far.
Cheers and keep up the fantastic work.

Oda.

well it's been a while with a few distractions in between but I can finally announce that Fusilier 9 is painted and ready to assemble, YAY!
And numbers 10 and 11 are close behind.


PHEW!

At last, progress! Don't get distracted by WWII.....

Looking forward to seeing this come together, it's going to be very impressive.

OK, I've finally got this boy over the finish line- Hoorah!!













He needs a bit of mud, and possibly blood, but I'll do them all at the end I think.
Thanks for watching

Good to see you posting on this again...... blood no.. mud yes... depending on where he is.. grassy field, ploughed field etc..

Awaiting more..

Right here's the next two, painted and ready for assembly.

Thanks for watching

Superb work, you have really brought those to life.

Looking good, it's carnage on your bench!

The figures are well animated, there's a lot of hard work going into this.

Thank you for the fine comments, Gents!
Here, at last, is Fusilier 12 all ready for paint.


I think my 3D printed bayonet might be a bit out of scale so I'm going to check it and re-print if necessary.
I had some trouble painting the eyes on the last 3 figures so I gouged them out like Oedipus and added new ones from Duro, which I hope are better.
Right then -on with the paint!
Thanks for watching

Great conversion work, it's a very realistic pose and I love the detail on the back of the ammo pouch. I have to agree agree, I think the bayonet does look rather big....... But great progress.

Thanks Nigel.
I measured the Historex bayonets I have used and it's exactly the same length. I think the problem is where it's sitting, it just looks odd. Anyway , it's staying now.

Great work, as always... awaiting to see the final layout...

And Fusilier 12 is done!












Irritatingly I only noticed the dust flecks when I saw the pics on the pc!
And the musket is not supposed to be broken, I'll have to paint up another one.
Thanks for looking, now on to number 13
cheers
Neil
