The regimental lace madness continues... !

A bit more progress this morning. I've been modelling for the best part of 38 years and this is the first time I have tried to paint glass!. I think it turned out alright. All comments welcome. Regards Pete

Terrific work! Very sharp painting!

Adrian

Thanks Nap....I think 'unconventional' is a good way to describe my way of painting but it works for me!

Thank you Adrian. Glad you like him. Regards Pete

Morning chaps. A bit more progress.... hope your projects are all going well. Regards Pete

Well worth the wait for an update, superb painting

Cheers Bob....I think there will be a lot of waiting on this one! Regards Pete

Good job on the green glass bottle! Personally, I would have continued to avoid painting glass and had an earthen-ware one instead. "Typically Spanish" I would have said to anyone dumb enough to listen to me.

Very nice work, please keep posting in progress pics as I am keen to see how you handle the rest of the figure

Thanks Steve....Like the suggestion! A tactical move which truth be told did cross my mind more than once. Regards Pete

Cheers Nigel! Will do..regards Pete

Afternoon everyone. Some more progress over the last few weeks. Very pleased with the crossbelt plate- a passable 'harp' and '88'! I can really see him coming together now. Hopefully not too far from the end.........regards Pete.

Excellent painting he really does look drunk, the glass bottle is spot on.
TERRY

Thanks Terry! Much appreciated. Cheers.

Evening everyone! Latest progress to show...Regards Pete

Slow going mate, its looking good though, love the face.

Amazing brush work..

Thank you Warren! Regards Pete

Cheers Bob! Thanks for the comments. It is very slow going but I've never been a quick painter. I think my outstanding grey army will outlast me...! Regards Pete
