Hi guys, my mate Trailape is serving in A-stan, before he left he asked me to make/paint up a couple of Peninsular Highland Regts, the 42nd (which will be advancing) and 79th which is this one in a firing line, I have put some other projects on hold to get these Regts done, Scot is pretty good, he gives me artistic license to do pretty much what I want, because I am an ex soldier I prefer the dirty, grimy, campaign look rather then on parade, the look I am going for here is a unit that has been marching up and down the peninsular shooting Frenchy, with very little resupply, but I still wanted it to look like a Highlander Regt so I kept mainly kilts, I let the command stand figures keep their feathers for contrast, and if anyone was going to keep them it would be the officers, and maybe the pipes n drums, I'm thinking of doing more facial hair, beards and mos, what do you guys think?
I cant wait to see them painted up
ReplyDeleteLovely conversions! I especially love the details you've given to individual facial hairstyles. Brilliant work!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff- I love the guy getting shot- very dynamic
ReplyDeleteGreat conversations - they will look fantastic when they're finished.
