These Prussians are looking great. Your big base 28s are a fantastic project! Thanks for sharing

nice one mate. Those Prussians look great, especially in 3 ranks! looking forward to seeing more

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks, im a big fan of the big base look,

Impressive, good to see the army filling out. I was reading today about a painter who used contrast paint on a white primed horse … but he applies a second coat! I have been doing one one coat of contrast, followed by a thinned standard paint. The contrast goes everywhere to kill the white and my second coat doesn’t have to be so thorough.

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks Norm, will be giving the second coat a try

Great work Stephen. I’ve been using the speed paints on some ancient figures lately and been happy with the results but I wasn’t sure they’d work so well for Napoleonics. Looks like I might have to rethink that view. 🙂

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks, mate. i was a bit sceptical at first, but a few experiments later, i think i have found the right combination.

[@johnclarke9498]

very nicely painted figures, i use that apothecary white and its a good whitish to use and a light dry brush of white after make it look nice

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks John, it definitely has a good effect, and I will be working on my Italian's soon

[@bonysminiatures3123]

perfect prussians )

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks

Big bases? Hmm, kind of brave…
Somewhat limits the variety of rules you can play.
They do look nice, however.

[@stephensmith1256]

Thanks, i have just got into the habit of big bases, since the day's of impetus rules. It dose limit the rules you can play butim a solo wargamer these day's.

@@stephensmith1256 - Mostly a solo gamer myself, and I’m warming to the simplicity of larger bases.
My rule of thumb these days is, fragile figures go on large bases, the more resilient metals can live on smaller bases (often individual ones) as they can take a lot more handling.
