ITLSU 1917 Project

[paulr]

We are painting the 54mm figures faster than they arriving from the Perrys so I will have a few days to continue this project

I managed to do half the packs for this batch before work this morning  I will do the rest tonight, then move onto rifle stocks...

Peter is coming up with a scenario that needs 4 Turkish battalions to mark ANZAC day so I need to get at least one third of this batch finished by 25 April 

And I need to sort out my photos for the paintings competition,  a busy February

[paulr]

Made some more progress on this batch as I wait for my next batch of 54mm figures to show up 

Packs, rifles, boots and belts done 

Will hopefully sort out the photos of my last couple of entries for the painting competition this afternoon, not that I am holding out much hope given the incredibly high standard this year

[paulr]

Still waiting for the next batch of 54mm  so good progress on this batch of 10mm

Flesh and touch ups left to do and then they will be ready to wash 

[paulr]

Flesh and flesh highlights done 

Touch ups tomorrow

Still waiting for more 54mm figures, just over 31 days to go

[paulr]

Domestic duties, getting ready for a game tonight and getting some more 54mm figures got in the way of the touch ups 

They might be lucky and get some touch ups while the glue and spray coats dry on the 54mm figures tomorrow

Isn't it still hot enough, over there, so that the spray dries instantly. 
Cheers - Phil

Only 25 tomorrow Phil 

I tend to be paranoid about the undercoat being completely dry so that it the most likely window for the touch ups

Only 25 tomorrow Phil

You chose to move to the land of soggy sheep!  Or did you have another motive...

Basically, so Mrs T could keep the gee-gees in the 'garden'.
And I like saying "Get orf moi land, to trespassers"......Except when they happen to be carrying a shotgun.
In those cases, I just resort to sarcasm, and then run away. 

Cheers - Phil.

Could always go and get the Bren gun; that might put the wind up the tweedy twerps

To link this to the eyesight thread, I read that Mrs T had the Bee-Gees in the garden.

The Labs probably dug em up to re-bury them.

Forecast was wrong for today 

26 today 

Blanket rolls and packs touched up, just a few uniform touch ups left to do 

54mm glued, undercoated and base coated; about to start painting first uniform colour after a nice lunch 

[paulr]

Managed to get the uniform and rifle touch ups done today while waiting for the under coat and base coat to dry on the 54mm 

Had to check on here to confirm what was left to do, been a while since I worked on these

Now ready to wash when I get a chance

[Techno]

Just have a quick shower, Paul...
It'll save time, and you can get back to the painting. 
Cheers - Phil

[paulr]

No progress on the 10mm Turks

Good progress on my "Napoleonic" naval rules
