Dear All
A new project this challenge is to paint up some skirmish figures for "The Silver Bayonet". You may have already seen some of my brother Matt's Silver Bayonet Zombie figure posts and we are basing the game in the Russian 1812 Winter campaign - I am taking on the French faction.
Not sure what it is with the Thursday crew and more snow based figures - must be having TeemuL as our minion.
Anyway here are the first 4 French characters. These are from the Perry Retreat from Moscow Cavalry pack.

Love the Dragoon with the Musket and converted the Polish figure to have a musket rather than carbine |
Next up are some Revenants from North Star.
I also have some North Star individual figures - very handy as I especially want figures in winter uniforms. Am French so must have a Guard character option.

TeemuL: Excellent Jez, something new! :) Well, good old Retreat from Russia and snow bases, but from different contributor. I'm glad to have any changes. You have an interesting take to bases, clear bases, but still some basing material glued on. It might be the best of both worlds, clear base area, but it is not that visible. Great idea! In general I like your brushwork and the bases look very real. Good luck with your brotherly project! That starts to sound quite familiar, two particants working on a same project, where I have heard that before...
More "Silver Bayonet" - this is like the sleeper-hit of this year's AHPC. Very cool painting Jez - not only in looks, but in shivering results.
ReplyDeleteNice bases Jez. You kept them a secret, they look great. Matt
ReplyDeleteThanks was trying to copy your shading technique rather than just my normal "blackwash". Might see you at home this weekend?
DeleteGreat painting on your SB team. Those definitely look like bad dogs.
ReplyDeleteWonderful work Jez! Interesting use of clear bases with snow effects. I'll echo Greg in that The Silver Bayonet is the dark horse winner so far in the Challenge for entries.
