Recommended Posts

Having enjoyed the two recently completed Prussian Fusiliers I dug this chap out of the grey army.

A Sergeant of regiment Spoercken. 

 

Initial under painting and mapping out of shadow areas with acrylic....

Tomorrows work will include deepening of the shadows and if it's dry enough painting in some of the small details.

Thank you. I'm taking an enforced break from this one while I'm at work but in a little over two weeks work will recommence.☺

Yeah, I'm on an enforced break from the hobby for exactly the same reason and it'll be two or three weeks before I can get back to my own half-finished stuff as well.

It is what it is.

:waiting:

The problem is having the same enthusiasm for a subject after a month away from it. I can usually pick up where I left off but there are a few figures languishing half naked that should really finished.
