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!

Not quite Barry, it's County Meath !!
I think the flags are absolutely brilliant, top job Clarence.

That's a fine unit Bob. Nice shade of blue and I love the bases...like they're walking through a meadow.

Bob,
What a beautiful sight
I love the look of your bases. Very good!
Do you have spare time to do this with my Saxons too?

Andy has painted up a red-coated French unit, & is about to start a grey coated Dutch unit for the weekender, but as I mentioned to him the other day all may not be as it seems, and they both may find a different paymaster

Very nice Bob,
Does Zerleuben translate as 'Garden Centre'?
