WIP, couple of Andrea kits I'm currently working on...

[DaveG]

Been working on these 2 for a few weeks now. Mostly took a few photos to test some new light bulbs I've plugged into my goose-neck lamps, but thought I'd share this one for the heck of it.

I like'em Dave, do you have plans for a vignette for these two (and a half ) ?

BTW, What kind of bulbs? Looks like a good natural colour -

 

[DaveG]

Thanks Gordy. And the missing head has since been attached now by the way.

Still working on a final display scenario for these. Until then I am now working on all the fiddly little bits and so forth and last will be the drum.

The bulbs are GE daylight type and are advertised as giving the closest to pure light. The difference between these and the ones I'd been using is astonishing in a good way.

I promise to post photos of these guys when they are all finished up.

Are they CFL bulbs ?

 

[DaveG]

Yep, the twisty kind.

Superbe my friend, I almost missed this thread. I really like these 1812 retreat from Moscow Andrea figures.

Good job on the faces

Finally done with these 2(well 3 actually). I mostly like how they turned out. Again, used some of the Hudson and Allen snow product, this time with a dryer texture.

Thanks John. I thought they looked awfully cold once I'd finished them too.

These were a lot of fun to work on. Definitely my favorites so far in my fledgling painting career.

Hi Dave
You made a fine job of painting these
the comrades in arms is one of the best kits Andrea have produced

I painted it and enjoyed it ...Looks like you did too

Thanks a lot Frank. It is definitely one of my favorites from Andrea too. Such a nice product in fact it seemed to almost paint itself at times.
