I took the oppertunity of the return of summer to photo some of the recent 'fruits of the brush' , first up my converted Prussian foot artillery.
These are the Prince August French artillery which I have converted into Prussians. Luckily the uniforms are similar and I added rolled greatcoats and shako covers to alter them. Think they look suitably different !
Next are the Prussian Dragoons which are converted from some British Household cavalry with head swaps and the coats lenghtened using 'green stuff'
There seems to be some disagreement of the colour of the uniforms , illustrations vary from navy blue to sky blue , I went for a mid blue . More conversions are in the pipeline .
Very nice results!
ReplyDeleteThanks , I'm pleased with them .
DeleteExcellent painting and they are gleaming beautifully!

Thank you
DeleteBeautiful paint jobs Tony, and the sun really shows them off nicely! I think that the mid blue looks just right!
ReplyDeleteThanks , different illustrations show a lot of blues from sky to navy !
DeleteExcellent work , even better by being alfresco.
ReplyDeleteIt helps to finally set the varnish as well I find .
