Colonel Fred Burnaby Belligerent!

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!

Colonel Fred Burnaby Belligerent!

Hi,

A nice little vignette of a larger than life Victorian hero- one that has a few rules added on just to spice up the odd game when re-fighting the Second Battle of El Teb (See the Blood on the Nile publication from Warlord Games for details).

There's much more information as well as many more pics on my Shooting Leave Blog as usual:

Hope you enjoy the pics and text.

Nicely done! I need to figure out how to do African flesh as well as you have - I am painting Masai, but I am not happy with the flesh.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.

Actually the colours I've used on the Beja on this base might be nice for the Masai.

It's basically the Foundry Musket Brown Triad but highlighted up a little further.
