Hi, i made them. Printed from the internet, sized to suit me. Then cut card to size and glued the fronts onto the card.

Many thanks. I undertsand about the paper problem, I find it hit and miss also.

Noted!

Thank you! Cheers!

many thanks..

Wash of black undercoat for metal. Then Game colour 72.053 "metalic".Highlight with Game colour "chainmail". If needed a wash of Army painter Dark tone.

@@OW... cheers thanx

Thanks 👍

Base sizes, Thats going to depend on the rule sets you use. Popular appears to be 60mm frontage followed by various depths, and figures on the base. For me i use 60x20 for close order infantry. 60x30 for lose order or light infantry.

Forgot to say. I now use a 60mm x 50mm for mounted figures. Horses are much large these days so the longer base, 50mm is required.

Many thanks..

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks, yep it's progressing ok...

Thanks a lot!

Many thanks..

Many thanks..

Hi. Base coat is use 72.012. Then sometimes 70.957, but usually straight to 70.909. Washes are Red tone, sometimes, Fleshtone or soft tone.

Many thanks..

Many thanks..

Many thanks.. Lances, i use wire i find the cast metal spears bend to easy. White undercoat, then 70.983, then a soft tone wash. Metal work is 72.053.

@@OW... thanx. How do you make the tip on a wire spear?

Thanks.. Brandy & coke helps when painting, but not too much...

Many thanks..

Many thanks... This project kinda started through looking at what Ken Riley and others are doing. I soon realised i will need forces for the French,Spanish & the Imperialists. I started painting some Landsknechts then moved onto Swiss. Then Italian states and Papal forces. Saying all of that its basically pike blocks, foot xbow and arquebus for all protagonists. The mounted arm even easier, Gendarmes, Heavy cavalry with a lance, Light cavalry with a xbow. I have just about completed the Swiss Italian stats and Papal forces. Yet to start on the French and Spanish..

Many thanks guvnor....

Thanks Peter.. I undercoated in a matt white spray. Then a red 70.909 from vallejo. Washed over the red and white in a Warpaint Soft Tone. That gives me a "dirty" red and white. I highlighted various areas of the white with a 72.101 off white. Various areas of the red with 70.909 Vermillion.

@@OW... thanx that’s great information. I have a large number to paint and white pops up a lot in clothing. Cheers and thanx from Australia

Peter, as i am sure you know well, White is a pain to paint. ;) Even after all my years of painting i still struggle with white, and making it look right in my eyes. I have never had an Austrian Napoleonic army, there is a reason...

Thanks Phil..
