6mm French for WSS

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!

6mm French for WSS

Post by Derbo » Thu Nov 22, 2012 10:36 pm

Finished my first battalion for "Beneath the Lily Banners"

The figures from Baccus are fun to paint. More to come!
There might be some spots which are not 100% accurate but I'm pleased with the final results.
Please share any thoughts and comments.

As Joe has already said, "these are amazing" I've seen some 28's that aren't painted as well as that.

Wow, 6mm you say? I'd say from the pics and the work you put into them they look more like 15s!

Keep up the good work.
