    Nemrod/Historex Napoleonic Dragoon

    I've got a stash of lead foil from my dentist. It's the packets that the old X-ray blanks were packaged in. He had a whole bucketful of them, and he couldn't get rid of 'em. Couldn't throw them in the trash, and too little an amount to use the disposal service required by federal regulation...

    Nemrod/Historex Napoleonic Dragoon

    Well done, Simon! That went together....seamlessly, shall we say? :D Did the kit include material for the reins and bits of tack, or did you have to supply your own? Keep 'em coming, man! Prost! Brad

    I'm eager to follow this part of your build, too, Simon! I've only recently started applying techniques like this to my horses. I wanted to enhance the look beyond "toy soldier" style of a monochrome horse, to make it look like a more refined kind of toy. Prost! Brad

    1/48 WW1 Pilot?

    Aerobonus makes some very nice 1/48 WWI pilots in 1/48, including French, but I haven't seen a seated French pilot in that catalog. The only seated pilots I've seen from them is a pair of German/Austrian aircrew in heavy flight suits. I have a pair of their standing German and Austrian pilots...

    Tirailleur Senegalese c. 1900

    Where the hell have I been?! I didn't realize that you finished this, Simon. Beautiful finish! Especially having followed your in-progress thread and seeing the challenges and changes you made here and there. From the colors to his expression, it's a great piece, well done! Prost! Brad

    Completed Third Regt of Belgian Lancers c. 1890

    I'm watching your work on the horse, Simon, to learn something ahead of some conversion work I want to do on some Imrie-Risley horses. I wonder if his mane should lie a little more towards the vertical, since he's standing still? Prost! Brad

    History Books to Recommend

    Too many to mention... For Frederick the Great's army in the Seven Years War, Christopher Duffy's "The Army of Frederick the Great" is an excellent book to have, both on its own, if it's the only such book you might read; but also as a starting point. You can following his bibliography for...

    Believe me, I work in IT, in application development as a quality assurance analyst. I test software for a living. And the more I work with technology, the more I hate it. Prost! Brad

    Carlist Marine, 1847

    Cheeky fellow, hiding this one while you build your Senegalese! :D This is another great figure, Simon! A great choice of subject, too. The Spanish provide so much color across so many time periods. Prost! Brad
