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!

Looks nice Joe but is that how you normally paint, one figure at a time?
Cheers

It looks very good.
But I suppose you mean "Leibgarde"?

Thanks all.
Dave, I paint in the usual assembly line style. I do horses first as they are the easiest but take time to dry because I use oils. I then get a test figure done for reference and the rest fall in line pretty quickly. The rest of the figures are in varying states of being completed.

The look fantastic

Joe,
these are really cracking. Loved the look before you did the shading too! The unit composition is beautiful. Love has defintely gone into these
Look forward to seeing more!

Decided to change the name of the topic to Palatinate Army Progress and just post here instead of creating multi-topics. The Grenadier Gardes are complete.
