Army of Tennessee 1864

[billyturnip]

Thank you Dan. You don't know how pleased I am to hear that. I've been waiting for someone to say if the groundwork was accurate or not. It's been tweaked a bit since the photo's were taken. I've applied some washes and highlights so let's hope it still looks like Georgia.

Let's ask Ray !

 

[billyturnip]

Only two problems with that, assuming he was still alive how would he know what it looks like?

Roger

 

[vergilius]

He knows. Believe me

 

[billyturnip]

Thats good enough for me!!!

This is some great work, Roger. I really liked the look of the logs in their natural state but you went ahead and painted 'em.

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Paul. I was in a bit of a dilemma about whether to paint them or not. It's done now but they've had some more work since those photo's were taken. See what you think when I post some new pics later.

Hi Roger. A little bit to late, but better now as never. Very good little diorama and I like the way you have painted the wall.

I am waiting to see the whole scene and because I know how quick you paint, I think that I mustn´t wait to long.

Excellent job
the riffle looks stunning. Can you post a close up?

 

[billyturnip]

No! Ok then, can you wait 'til I get my camera back out I've just put it away
Thank you Patrick I'm glad you like it

You can come to Belgium of course and show us your lovely figure

Talking figures over a few bolleke of de Koninck would make me very

 

[vergilius]

so save a few pounds and come to our show in april. Your figure probably get a medal too!

 

[eissteban]

hey Roger, you're an ogre
One more finish ! Simple but impressive.
I like the way you achieved the base and the face of this man.
(I built the base under my sailor when you paint 2 or 3 figs )

So, what is the next one ?
Seb.

Go ahead Jonny

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you Seb, next figure is a 100mm Michael Robert's Confederate artillery offecer. I don't think it will be finished before I go back to sea, but who knows.

[Dan Morton]

Very, very nice, Roger! Looks like Georgia to me!!!

All the best,
Dan

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you very much Dan. It makes me very happy to know it looks like where it is supposed to be

Excellent work, Roger. This has worked out a real treat. I really like the look of the end of those logs too. I think your lightin' has made the mud look very orange, huh?!

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you Paul. It isn't quite as bright in real life
