Very, very well painted Ali. Wish I could paint so well.  :-bd

Only slight reservation is to do with the basing - my own preference would be to base them in close order, more in keeping with the period - but that's personal preference.

Cheers chaps, completely agree about the basing, i think the next ones will have 8 to 10 on a base.
                    Cheers Al.

Excellent work, Al. Are you basing them for any particular set of rules?
Title: Re: SYW photo test
Post by: ali657 on 26 April 2015, 05:38:26 PM
Thank for the kind words, not really basing for any particular rules, just what I feel looks ok. I'm using 30x30 bases but I think I need more figures per base, more like the Grenadier base in the centre of pic.
Still not sure about gaming, the painting is my interest. I like pictures of war games and battle reports but not sure I have the inclination or time to take part myself. So they are probably doomed to collect dust and then disappear into a drawer.  😞
                     cheers Al

Stunning work Al, i really like your painting style.  I'm the same as you, it's all about the enjoyment of painting and seeing the end result, i carn't ever see me having a game while i live in Hungary , the few gamers that i have found here are all into fantasy stuff.
I think i'll do a couple more units for my LoA army then look for a good home for them, that way they will see action  ;D.
I would go for more figs per base if i were starting another army, the grenadier base looks spot on.
Looking forward to seeing more.

Cheers Kev, still developing a style really. Probably posted pictures of everything I've painted in 10mm, so still learning with every figure.
Will probably look at mine for a while when their finished then stick them on eBay, at least they might get used.
                    Cheers Al.

Thanks Bunny, if your SYW turn out like your LOA they will be worth seeing. I might copy your Danish guard😉
             Cheers Al.
