I really like your work, Mateus. I also like your choice of figures. The Italeri Napoleonic French infantry have been around for some time, but they're still elegant figures. |

I wish you'd stop posting pictures of beautifully painted 1/72 plastic Napoleonic units. You're going to tempt me back into my own 1/72 Napoleonics project and completely derail progress on my other projects… Those are lovely. I've always liked the realistic proportions of the 1/72 plastics, and your paint jobs really bring them to life. You do amazing work. - Ix |

I found the tutorial on your blog about how you make the bases. I think it's hilarious that you use actual dirt to simulate miniature dirt. No complaints though. Your bases look awesome. I'm putting compost on my shopping list.  - Ix |

Thanks, guys! About my basings, hilarious was having people ask me what do I use to make the dirt on my basings look so much like real dirt (!). Now they know my secret! :-P |

Agreed – the black facings are probably the best, followed by dark blue maybe. Really looking good, and always love how you make those old style figures work well. Me, I am still dreaming of the release of a "correct" uniformed French infantryman – HaT have them, but not released yet (and their older set is, well, a bit basic). I had hopes for the Zvezda promised set, but now they have gone small box that is never going to work for me, so I will keep waiting. Happy New Year Mateus – here's to lots of updates in 2015 |
