Had another go at casting today , this time cavalry , a couple of moulds I got from Prince August in their recent sale . I find you get the best results from casting if you use two or three moulds at a time which gives them time to cool , you need them warm to get the best results - but not to hot - a sort of 'Goldilocks' moment .
This mornings sessions results - three Hussars and their mounts . They are described as 'British Hussars' but they are vauge enough to do as French and with a little tweak - Prussians .
One I did earlier - the French gun and crew painted up and newly glossed , working on casting the other gun and crew to make up the Battery - more photos of painted stuff on the way.
Look forward to seeing the Hussars painted up and the artillery base looks great in their shiny new coat.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorting the Hussars out at the moment.
DeleteThe artillery looks great Tony! I look forward to seeing the hussars with their glossy finish!
