Damn good brushes, the series 7 !!
What's the best price you've found ?
Cheers - Phil

From a quick scan of my records, Size 00 for £4.19. Around the £7 mark seems more realistic. Going for £7.20 inc. on the Bay at the mo.

Good to see you are continuing your tradition of modifying figures after painting them ;) ;D

Agreed. Good stuff, Michael.  :)
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Your painting is, as always, Michael, exemplary. My only comment on the figure is that his shako ornament is too big to be a pompom and not big enough to be a plume. Just a nit-pick.  :)

The MM voltigeurs have the short plume of 1812 regulations. Perhaps not a very successful sculpt or lacking any sense of taper? Number 1 is how he's meant to be painted for 1813+.

Ah, I see. It would have been pretty precarious had the sculptor gone for the full taper.

Have you seen this month's Miniature Wargames?

In the Blogs of the Month section is a very prominent mention for Michael's blog! Excellent, hopefully you will get lots of new visitors.

Thanks to Fred for bringing my attention to this. I was planning on getting a copy of the magazine as I saw there was an 1809 related article but I didn't know I was in it too!

Michael, I look at your blog regularly and taking content and the blog itself together it is a source of inspiration (this is really good, I should do something similar) and despair (I would never manage anything half as good). Nice to see the blog get a little of the recognition it deserves!

Looking  forward to your next post!
