discussion British Infantry Sudan

[Tim Marlow]

Thanks for the compliment Fernando, I enjoyed them in the end, but struggled in the middle of the build....fairly usual for me to be honest.....

 

[Tim Marlow]

Hi Jim, thanks for that. I’ve been doing them on and off for many years so should have them down pat by now LOL.
Also agreed ref the weather, fast drying acrylic paint dries even quicker in this heat....I’m going to try a wet pallet on my next figures to see if that helps.

More fantastic little men.
It'll be a treat to see them all together.
Jon.

Thanks for the support Jon
Basing next, then they’ll be in formation...,

Thanks Si, must admit to being quietly pleased with the way these came out

Marvellous work Tim.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Thanks Peter, appreciate that...between us we cover both ends of the figure world LOL

 

[Steve Jones]

Another stunning update. I could look at them all day. Looking forward to seeing them all in situ.

 

[Tim Marlow]

Thanks Steve, much appreciated. They are now flat coated and based so I’ll try to get some pictures taken when I have a few minutes...on to the next project now, some Lord of the Rings game pieces for a friend of mine. They are quite basic so I probably won’t post them.
Cheers
Tim

Very well done sir.
I'm currently finishing off a force for the Sudan in 1/72 and am leaving them shiny for a 'toy soldier' look for no other reason than it seems to suit Colonials. Long job chewing through a herd of camels.
