OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

@all
thank you for yor kind words.
Yeah,the kilts.Highlanders are tough stuff-I mean to paint,that's why I chose the 8th Brigade and not the 9th with it's two Highland Regiments.But actually the kilts aren't that bad,it's the band around the bonnet and the socks that really kills you

Great to see these figures! The bases are fantastic. Can I ask what colours you used on the base?

Hi David,
thank you,glad you like the bases.But I just coppied that style from Decebalus,because I liked the look,too,and to match his gaming boards.The basic colours are from the DIY-Store.It's a mixture of an ochre tone and something they call oxyd brown,then I dry brush it with "Meridian Sand" from I-Kore Paints(it's a cold beige tone)and finish it off with a light white very dry drybrush.
