Painting these was like working with old friends again. I have just finished half a dozen French gun crewmen for the Crimean War, they are superb little figures.Mark Strachanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988775093525037168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-20476074697867685802016-01-23T16:08:35.935+13:002016-01-23T16:08:35.935+13:00Mark, your building construction is unmatched.

I have a dozen of these same fellows (but in 15mm not 25mm) in my painting queue hoping to undergo the brush soon. Have always liked this uniform.Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.com
