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

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

Great work, and nice to see someone who makes me look like a quick modeller..... Loving the subtle wear effects on the shako.

Morning all! Some fiddly work cleaning up the musket today. I have included some reference pictures for my original India Pattern Brown Bess. If anyone is doing a figure armed with a Brown Bess and wants some detailed shots of the lock, barrel. Brass work etc to assist, drop me a line and I'll happily oblige. Regards Pete

Afternoon all. Have managed to get a bit more of the red done this morning. Regards Pete

Morning chaps!

Just knocked off the red on the bottom of the jacket this morning. I'm pleased with the faded look of the cloth.

Still got the lace on the pocket and turnback to do but am hopefully going to finish the haversack first.

Hope all your projects are going well.

Regards Pete

Excellent painting Pete, love the faded look.

Watching this one, kinda reminds of an older kit. I think it was Wolf. Now off to the inter webs to see if I can find it.
