Bases labelled, last dry brush done and figure bases painted

Will base over the weekend

fantastic.

All pretty back on track here now with twins and Mrs Shy all OK  - thanks for your thoughts  

so onto final wash and dry brush and bases for the guns etc tonight.....still need to get the crews and a few German infantry to Paul to do in case he ever runs out of AWI militiia (or 1914 German jaegers) to paint up 

I was wondering when the crews were going to appear

Only one more batch of AWI Militia left to do and only 3 stands. These will be Loyalist, Bryan's Refugees from North Carolina
A few others to do as well

Redoing my German guns as my Tamiya grey paint went very weird and "dropped " its colour. not sure what's. happened ~ too cold maybe 

Got a new pottle so see how things go. Bases ready.

Really ?.........Half a gallon ? 
You must be painting an awful lot of German guns.

All the reinforcements required for the Affair at Nery in a couple of weeks are now done 

Looking forward to seeing those.

Got a chance to take pictures of what has been done so far...

German 2^nd Guards Machine Gun Detachment - replacing stand-ins





British - extra MGs for dismounted cavalry regiments





British - 2 MGs and extra rifle stand for fourth infantry battalion - MGs replacing stand-ins, stand-ins used on rifle stand





British - 2 MGs for second infantry battalion - replacing stand-ins

'Triffic work, Paul ! 
Cheers - Phil.

(Just as a matter of interest....Is the background you use this lighter shade, or nearer the darker colour in the shot of the Virginia Militia, you posted this morning ?.....)

They look really good.

Very nice indeed

Take care

Andy

Same background, exposure times were very long and sun was moving from behind light cloud to darker cloud Militia ended up a bit under exposed

 

Thanks, Paul !

I should also update the count for this project

Based
452 Infantry, Dismounted cavalry & gunners
156 Cavalry & limber horses
13 Guns, limbers & carts
621 Total

Made sure I didn't double count the reused figures and also subtracted the replaced stand-ins, I think I got the arithmetic right

Reinforcements used is a very enjoyable game at Call to Arms convention today, report to follow
