Lord Uxbridge and ADC´s (Perry) finished base

[14th Brooklyn]

I am starting a short series on WIP post on my blog, going through the paces of a command stand in 28mm (Perry Miniatures) depicting Lord Uxbridge and three ADC´s at Waterloo. For those interested... here is the first post (going through the reasoning of the colour choices for the horses, conversion work and so on):

Burkhard,

You are using this NMM-Method often or is this only a first try
I have never seen this before

Hi Günter,

I have been using it on all my Napoleonics minis, but only on fibrics (cloth of gold, cloth of silver, fringes, tassles, epaluettes, piping...). For real metal items (swords, barrels, helmets, cuirasses) I still use metalic paints.

Cheers,
