Beautifully done, and I have a question.
I am currently working on Victrix Napoleonic British and Highlanders, putting them together I found that their bayonets are somewhat easily broken if one is not careful.
Do you find that once painted and sealed that the bayonets are more sturdy or should I just trim them all off?
I noticed that you kept yours, that is why I am asking. |

I never found painting all that white to be taxing. I prime white, and that becomes the base coat. |

Thanks all! cavcrazy, I've only broken one victrix and one perry bayonet. The rest are fine so far. From what I've heard the Victrix Austrians and Victrix Guard French may have slightly tougher bayonets than the earlier ranges, but that's just going on what others have said. |

Nice work and nice units. I'm putting off starting my Austrians, all that white and shading looks like a real slog. |

I LOVE the bold blacklining! I wish I had the confidence to do that too.
For some reason it never seems to succeed… :/ |
