Nice work Roger. I will not be a bore, but, could upload photos bigger?

Thanks Eduardo, is this better?

Thank you very much, Roger. Now I can see better the braids and laces, very clean painting. I like the orientation of the look of him. Also, PF system allows you to upload pictures of this size so, why not use it?

Nice work Roger!

Nicely done Roger-quite an army you are assembling

You're welcome Eduardo, I now realise what a difficult job Daniel "MarquisMini" has undertaken with all those white uniforms he's doing.

Thank you Balazs, it would be nice to do some more 18th Cent. Hungarians.

Cheers Keith, at least they don't need feeding.

Nicely done, Roger! I just saw your post over at HZ, too. Did you apply Hendryk's suggestion about the highlights on the photo's left/figure's right side? They look subtler in this photos, very good!
I have a couple of fully-round figures that I'm painting as members of the Gyulai regiment, or maybe Erzherzog-Ferdinand. From my sources, it seems that both regiments had the same color scheme, and the most visible difference was that Gyulai's rank-and-file carried Säbeltaschen.
Prost!

Thanks very much Brad.
Although Hendryk's intentions are good and I appreciate his critique what I'm seeing here in front of me is a little different to what you see in the photo's so I left it alone. The photo's here are the same ones I posted at HZ, just goes to show.
I would agree though it could be better and I need more practice on white uniforms.

Looking forward to seeing your figs sometime. Looks like from my Osprey you're right aout the Säbeltaschen for Erzherzog-Ferdinand.

Roger.

Wonderful work Roger ( king of the flats), as Ken stated the whites are great, but I also think the blues are brilliantly done.

What's next?

 

[billyturnip]

Cheers Dave, I'm still surveying the horde to decide on what's next.

Roger.

Thanks for clarifying, Roger, in that case, double-well done! It looks better here on the Planet.

Thanks Brad, I have some 30mm Austrians I'm plucking up the courage to start but they'll have to wait until next leave.

Roger.
