Hi G.,

Really nice. Great work with the insignia.

Your page loaded slowly. I noted the images are about 5,321px × 4,000px each; try resizing them to smaller before loading them and it should load quicker.

Wow! Great painting on those figures Sir!!

Congratulations!!!!

The only thing I don't like is the brutally bright blue colour! They look like 18th cent infantry, when pastel colours were "en vogue" for uniform coats.

Cheers

Romain

I don't know what happened to the blue in the photographs as it is a lot darker on the actual models with Dark blue being the right colour for these uniforms.

I do agree it does look like Bavarian Corn blue.

Cheers

I had back surgery last year which did not work and have been quite limited for the time I can sit at the work bench.

I am getting better but it is a slow progress.

I hope to be able to do some more modelling but it frustratingly takes a little bit longer than before.

Cheers

Thanks for that much appreciated.

Don't realize how much you take your back for granted till something like this happens.

Still.

There is always someone with worse problems.At least I can still model which is a huge plus.

Cheers

Gerry
