As its the painting that I enjoy this blog is going to feature my painting methods for figures of 15mm through to 40mm. Please forgive me if I leave out smaller figures, the 5mm and 10mm, as I don't derive much pleassure from painting these.
Currently, on my painting desk, I have 40mm SYW Prussians and Austrians (and I'll post some pictures of these), 15mm 1806 AB Prussians, 25mm Republican Romans and, lastly, 15mm 1809 Austrians. But I tend to work on a number of projects at once and when I have time to post this blog, I'll discuss what I'm painting that day or that week. That moves around, as you will see.
The 40mm Sash and Sabre range are excellent and cheap. At $2 a figure they work out at less than many manufacturer's 25mm figures. I have a gripe about the lack of variety in the command but hey, its a new range, and one has to be patient.
Here is a 28 figure Austrian battalion:
Very nice figures; do tell us how you achive such a good effect painting such large areas of white.
