Waterloo 'The Square' 1815. 52nd Regiment Carl Reid

[Grod]

Hello Folks

Just prepping some display models for the BMSS National show this Saturday in Reading including this 21 x figure set by Carl Reid depicting the 52nd Regiment (Oxfordshire Light Infantry) which is back in stock and available direct from www.rdgminiatures.com
Looking forward to the show as it's my first one for some time and if anyone is in the area it's well worth a visit.

Cheers
Gordon

WOW!! That is really something.

I bet that looks fantastic painted up, but sadly my own attention span would be stretched to finish 2 redcoats let alone 21. What a project for someone though. A real show-stopper!

Just WOW


Anybody taking on that little lot must have a serious stock of red paint

Nice one Gordon. I'll be popping along at the weekend so hope to see you there
Cheers

Agree totally and this would be a real labour of love but magnificent once completed. I always think something like this is an ideal project for a club where each member paints 1 or even 2 figs each then brings it all together. The problem then comes deciding which lucky person gets to keep the end result!

That's going to take a bit of painting.............

That's a magnificent model! Interestingly, I have an officer of 52nd. not from this set on my workbench.

The folk in the hobby will speak in hushed tones for years to come pal!
You've done some amazing things over the past years pal but flippin eck… who know's what else you'll pull out of your magic sack!
Best of luck with all things mate and keep creating.
Cheers from sunny Cumbria.

Hope the kit comes with a gallon of red paint.........

It is beautiful, but requires a huge effort in painting, which will make it a challenge for a weekend modelist as I am.....until I retire, these are dreams to linger upon.....

This looks brilliant Carl and Gordon do it again the scale is a bit to small for me but I can still appreciate a great piece when I see it

Fabulous piece of work; would love to see one all painted. Like many above the sheer demand to complete would be too much for me.

 

[Trep]

awesome work

 

[housecarl]

Impressive.

 

[Henk]

I'm strangely drawn to this. Not quite my era, but a very impressive set piece. And hardly any white to paint . And whilst the price is a serious shock to the wallet, if you break it down it's actually quite a good deal...



Well, that's what I'd have to tell SWMBO... I'd claim keeping it save for Nap, but they all have legs.

Jaw dropping concept and execution.
