It looks like these are going to come in very handy!
Can't beat a good Osprey! |
Last week I asked Stuart Mack commission painter extraordinaire, (Miniature Realms), and admin of the Facebook Warlord Epic Napoleonic group if I was OK to post a link to my painting service which he happily agreed to. As a direct result of this I now have an exciting new commission to paint the entire Prussian army starter package, the Old and Middle Guard sets, the Highland Brigade and the entire French Guard cavalry set plus the Guard Horse Artillery. This will certainly keep me busy over the coming months and will fit nicely around my ongoing commission work for John, Graham and Tony, it is just what I had hoped for. Stuarts YouTube channel is well worth checking out for painting tutorials and Vlog projects including Epic Napoleonic/ACW, Bolt Action, Flames of War and much more. The quality of his work is stunning and the fact that he is fully booked up until June 2023 speaks volumes.
In other news.
I'm painting more WSS Garde du Corps this week for John to finish off the 4 companies, 44 cavalry plus 4 mounted commanders. I have some more WSS French Dragoons to paint for Tony next week.
On Friday morning I'm planning a solo game of DBN, just the 12 points per side in order to improve my knowledge of the rules so I decided to produce a couple more villages (Non Linear Fortifications in DBN terms), using some lovely Battlescale 10mm buildings. The bases are designed to hold a single base when occupied. You see them below with one village occupied by my latest paint job, a base of Nassau infantry, a simple paint conversion from the French infantry sprue and I might add another in due course.
