I hope this works! My first 10mm figures ever:



French infantry for the FPW.

Fittingly.

Thank you all.

Competition..maybe next year, with LOTS more practice!

Great figures, Bazaine. I particularly like the eagle colour. Do try to avoid Metz, though.... 

Very nice. The light coloured base makes the figures stand out.

Is that a cast on flag? *shudder*

Dear M Bazaine,

Some of us have been painting 10mm figures for a while. Do you think that in for the sake of the steeped longer, yet not as proficient in these arts, you could perhaps show a little consideration? Do you not feel that it behooves you to make a few mistakes to not show us up? A few buttons painted in the wrong colour? A missed cuff? An abherrant splodge of flesh on a trouser leg?

*through gritted teeth* These are lovely figures. Very good for a first try. Keep at it and you'll get better.

I'm with FSN, I call foul! 

You are not allowed to post your first 10mm figures if they look 10 times better than mine, and I've been painting for several years now! 

Seriously, those are beautiful, and the danger for me in seeing beautiful figures in a period I currently don't have is that they make me want to get into that period, so this is a double whammy!  Good stuff, can't wait to see more.

V/R,
Jack

Really good finish on those, and what a great period to choose to game!

Excellent work!

Very nicely done, indeed
