Yes, I like that very much.... I think the weathering spot on. Did the kit come with a figure?

Exceptionally good piece of work..... Some work gone into that... The guy in the back with the FN stands out. Detail in the palm and the DPM really good.

Brilliant.... The canvas is exceptionally good.

Great job on those figures Ratch. White gaiters for the summer well detailed that man. My old dad did them back in the day 1970s done a few myself recently. He did them for my birthday and put them around my birthday cake must have been about 10 at the time. Arrh memories..

Hi Ratch Dettol works well for stripping old paint off. You've certainly been busy mate great stuff.

This is what it's about.... Arrh memories about my old dad and me. Great build.. Hope to see more in the future..

Hello folks, First figure finished from ICM kit number 35061. On a temporary base, as intend to do a mini diorama when the other 3 are completed. Excellent value £7:80 for the set for a beginner like me.

Great job ... It's a good kit especially for the price. Pity though they got the hub nuts wrong.

Brilliant... Love the base.

Looks pretty outstanding to me ... Those figures really make it sing.

Great result Ian... You could believe that's 1/35 scale... Brilliant job on the figures as well.

Thanks Andy, Probably back in the day considered state of the art. I like them and find them extremely challenging. In the future though must have a go at a more modern figure manufacturer.

Cheers Ian On reflection wish now, I had thinned them down a bit. The next one in kneeling position think I will .. In the cabinet next to the others in this series though not that noticeable at first.

Cheers Keith Yes, the hands on this particular one in the Collectors Series not the best sadly.

Brilliant Ratch.... Thoroughly enjoyed viewing...

Greetings folks, For your perusal latest off the bench . Left the pack off on this one the next one, I do in kneeling position may add the pack. Comments welcome.

Brilliant love them Jim...

The diorama in itself is a work of art. Marvellous piece of work.

The figure above best I can do as far as eyes.

I'll keep trying.. I use a loupe glass and still can't get it right. Oh and use good quality brushes.

Cracking job. I do seem to remember doing that kit back in the day ...

This is a must read for anyone interested in the Napoleonic genre. Set during the Peninsula War. Just re reading myself and thoroughly enjoying it ..

Cheers Ian Very true... Looking at some my old dad did back in the day and he got the eyes better than I can, but he was a commercial artist. Think on reflection he might have used oil paints not Humbrol tins.

Thanks BK. Not sure if my building method always the best. I do arms body detail painting then put together rather than build and paint. I didn't really get the arms positioned as desired on this one. Would have liked him sighting down the musket more, but you could argue he's bringing the weapon up or down.
