Bob,
that looks fantastic :D

Bill,
It looks for me that he does not hiding behind the gravestone but instead scribling something on it :wink:

Andy's style is really nice. I particularly like: flat but warm tones on the large clothing areas, soft flesh tones which appear very natural in the day light of Bob's shot.

Toggy's now own's more painted Warfare stuff than I do! Meglomaniac!

Shucks, thanks guys :D

I think the basing really helps here, mainly because it distracts your eye from my mistakes! And the figures are also very easy to paint with good details where necessary and nice flat bits to work on too. So, I wouldn't dream of taking all the credit here.

Thanks for posting them Bob.

I painted them as Embdy's Dragoons - as in, whose Hob-nobs are those? Oh, Embdy's :lol:

Very nice Andy and Bob, you've both made a fine job of the dragoons.
Now we just need someone to produce the dismounted command :wink:
Cheers
