Is that your game room? It's huge! I like the storage space you have. How large is that table? Great looking game. I was wondering how the game played out. It looks like there was not much room to move troops along the flanks. Matthew |

Fantastic battlefield and painted figures! Just a little constructive criticism on the sky blue pants. It's a common mistake that many painters make. It is way too light. If you search the internet, you will see what the color is like. Reenactors pants are correct, or at least much closer to the actual color and you can use them for reference.
But the figures are still painted beautifully! |

Thnaks for the comments…its the games part of our local shop…i wish i had a room like that!!!!! Dreams…..
@Fire Zouave- thanks for that….i think there is a mix of blues there and i will leave it to Sparker to comment as they are mainly his I think? Having said I will keep what you have said in mind when i start painting blue bellies! :) |

Yes a great post Field Marshal thanks, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game as much as I did! You certainly kept the pressure up… Re the sky blue pants, yes I am sure that is right, you're not the first person to point that out, so thanks. However I shall stick to my guns (and the washed out, faded look!) |
