Hi guys

Next for the largish commission was some confederation of the Rhine Saxe Gotha (White crossbelts) and Saxe Meiningen (black cross belts) I gave the Meiningens a slightly darker blue to set them apart a little more, nice minis, although for some reason the faces of some had been squished, flattening the nose right out, not sure if this was a de molding issue or transportation issue, might use some early Saxons one day to do these in 15mm for myself.

Lovely paintjob! I like the gritty and dirty looking uniforms, very authentic.

Bonjour Gunner,

These look great and I don't have any!

As regards you saying that "for some reason the faces of some had been squished" I had the same issue with some other Perry figures, probably 1815 British which I did some years ago.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Paul

How did you create the mud/dirty look on the pants?

You should see the noses that I've dealt with, after a Saturday night in Middlesbrough town centre….shame is on some of the nicest lads, just in the wrong place etc

Squished noses are surprisingly realistic alas

yeah true, I've had a squished nose myself.
Muddy pants are just dry brushed, nothing special.
