WIP Fähnrich deutsches Regiment Hoch- Deutschmeister

[billyturnip]

I decided it was time I made a serious attempt at tackling the dreaded white uniform of this Seven Years War Austrian.
Here's how it's looking so far. It's a 54mm Fredericus Rex figure.

It´s very elegant. I like it.

Thanks very much Eduardo. This is how it will stay now for a month as it's back to work tomorrow.

Thanks Marc.

 

[MarquisMini]

Roger, it looks great!!!.
I don't know why you are so skeptic about the white, you are doing a damn good job my friend.
Happy new year!!!

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Daniel. I haven't been too pleased with previous attempts at white uniforms but I'm a bit happier about this one.
Happy New Year.

Roger.

I've done a couple of tweaks and photographed it under better lighting conditions. It's now put away until I come home in February.

It's looking better and better...you are paintu g white like a natural, perhaps more frenchies in white in the near future ;-)

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Daniel..... I'll stick with Austrians for the moment but perhaps some French chaps sometime in 2015.

 

[ChaosCossack]

Very well painted Roger.
The whites are super and I really like the detail on the standard and waist sash.
All the best,
Keith

[billyturnip]

Cheers Steve, it's pretty well engraved so not too bad compared with what Gerard and Daniel have taken on.

Nice !

 

[Eludia]

Looks perfect to me so far Roger. Lovely work overall but especially the whites. I've still not plucked the courage to try a flat, maybe this year....
