WIP Dettingen 1743

[Joe55]

Looks like you are in the midst of another FPF (flat painting frenzy), Roger!

This is an excellent selection you have made here, and they so far are coming out great. Where did you get them?

Thanks Joe, this is available from Fredericus Rex http://shop2015.fredericus-rex.de/index.php mine came from Hendryk here on Pf.

Another killer Roger.

Great job so far Roger... probably my favourite flat vignette

Keep it up

Daniel, Colin, thanks very much.

Update. Trying something new with the reds on this one, going for a bit more worn and faded look.

Speaking of Dettingen, I have finally seen a figure of George II, in 54mm, no less.

I love how this flat is coming along, Roger! You have really hit your stride and have a constistency now to your figures.

Prost!
Brad

Thanks very much Brad. Spill the beans on George II then.

Update.

I got sniped in the auction, grrr! The figure was made by Roger Saunders, part of a series of the Kings and Queens of Britain.

Nice progress!

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Brad.
Sorry you missed George, better luck next time.

 

[billyturnip]

Slowly working away at the details and enhancing the shade & lights.

Cheers Steve, been on the strong Belgian beer so might leave until tomorrow now.

Hoping 'el hefe' likes Leffe !
I discovered it in Normandy last year,
The locals were treading on my knuckles as I walked home after.

Lovely work Roger,
Great casting too.
Paul

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Paul.
Bit of a Leffe fan myself, Blond & Brun.

This is how it's looking now, lot's of little pieces to sort out, buttons, swords, etc.

They are looking really good Roger.
Get that fine detail on it and you have a winner.
Cheers,
Keith
