Thanks very much Keith.

Mighty fine Roger. Scaled it to 54mm and it's the dogs swingers
Just the right sense of depth. Maybe a little more shadow where the right outer thigh runs into the waistcoat.
Other than that the whites, blues and face are very impressive.
Cheers
Derek

That's looking good Roger .
Best wishes, Gary.

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Derek, I'm still tweaking areas of shadow on the whites so I'll include that, cheers.

Thanks very much Gary.

Thanks Ulrich, this is just finishing off what I started last time I was at home, however there is plenty of other stuff underway at the same time.

Looks great Roger!
Another beautiful figure... Whites look spot on to me, but then again I suck at painting white

Thanks Colin, it's taken a lot of time and patience and I'm still not 100% happy with it (I don't think we ever are) but I might be getting somewhere with this one.

 

[ChaosCossack]

I'd be happy as a pig in $#!T if my whites turned out a quarter as good as this

You're definitely getting somewhere with this.

It's back to red n blue after this.

Roger, as everyone has said, great job on the whites. That's a hard color to paint in my book, and you have done a great job with it, especially with the shadowing colors. Looks super. And I like your gold lace.

[billyturnip]

Thanks very much Pete. I`ve done a little bit more this morning but will leave it until tomorrow before continuing for fear of overworking it.

 

[Huw63]

Great work on a uniform in one of the most difficult colours to depict.

Cheers

[billyturnip]

Thanks very much Huw.

 

[Blind Pew]

Thanks very much everyone. White uniforms have always been difficult for me to paint but I'm determined to get it right, that and flags so what better piece to practice on.

Let us know when you get the hang of it mate.

Let us know when you get the hang of it mate.

It won't be the first time where I thought I've got the hang of something and the next one is a disaster ready for the oven cleaner.
