I actually completed this 36 figure unit two weeks ago, but it has sat with its bases half completed ever since. Now with birthdays, anniversaries and other complications out of the way it is time to complete them.
This, with the first and Landwehr battalions, completes the regiment.
Next on the painting table is a grenadier battalion.
A superb looking regiment
ReplyDeleteThank you Neil.
DeleteBeautiful results, Mark, and your post popped up right away.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan. Yes I was surprised by the speed it appeared...I sort of expected to see it tomorrow morning.
DeleteThese new Austrians look particularly fine Mark. The shading on their faces is excellent.
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith. I used the Contrast Guilliman Flesh tone, thinned appropriately, on these (and other Austrians in this batch).
DeleteIndeed, you've nailed those "white" uniforms! Dry-brushing? Or a different method?
ReplyDeleteKind Regards,
Stokes
Thanks Stokes. I just used a bone undercoat, applied a coat of Contrast Apothecary White then highlighted the white crossbelts. Quick and easy white uniforms.
DeleteLovely work Mark, they look great.
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie.
DeleteAnother great painted regiment sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteYour troops are wonderful looking and no doubt your Austrian list will be awesome when finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe. I think there will be a need for a parade in due course...
DeleteAnother grand looking Australian unit.
ReplyDeleteThanks...just four more battalions to go.
DeleteBeautiful work on these Mark and the posing is particularly effective. Some great characterful figures in there.
ReplyDeleteI am doing the Victrix grenadiers now and they are very characterful...extreme in one or two cases.
DeleteAnother fabulous unit Mark!
ReplyDeleteThank you Chris.
DeleteYou paint white uniforms very well Mark. This is a very striking looking unit for sure. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dai...I'm starting to get the hang if this working with white!
DeleteCracking work as always there Mark:)!
ReplyDeleteThank you Steve.
DeleteOoooo they're rather nice, Mark!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray...now let's see how they fight
