As you say the fascination is in finding how many differing approaches to the same subject there are. Probably as many as their are wargamers. I may well get some of the Foundry civilians, they have an Hogarthian quality about them, which comes through better on your blog than on the Foundry site.<BR/><BR/>Stokes<BR/>I would love to show you the red hussars, they are lovely, unfortunately they are not mine!They were painted by mr Steve Gill, who has no blog at present.<BR/><BR/>Andy<BR/><BR/>compliments from someone whose work I admire so much are especially valued.<BR/><BR/>Conrad,<BR/><BR/>the only wargamer within miles of me is also collecting HE figures but 40mm home cast. They look lovely when properly painted. You would think we could get our act together and both do the same scale wouldn't you? but thats wargamers.<BR/><BR/>Steve<BR/><BR/>I think looking at your blog that we overlap a lot in techniques and the armies that we produce. You are a lot more prolific than me at present however.<BR/><BR/>Jean Louis<BR/>Iam now finding myself looking at the Spencer Smith site and planning my next unit. So I don't think it will be to far into the new year before a Wenceslas Infantry unit is added. I will be sure to display it in due course.<BR/><BR/>regards to all<BR/><BR/>Johnjohnpreecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548014163096067684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385210602449395922.post-8202759134109178422008-12-06T08:20:00.000-08:002008-12-06T08:20:00.000-08:00Lacking the technical background to ‘judge’ them, ...Lacking the technical background to ‘judge’ them, or to be worthy of expressing my ‘compliments’, I can only, purely on the basis of aesthetical pleasure, second <A HREF="http://frivolousfusiliers.blogspot.com/2008/12/oh-its-all-about-someone-else-actually.html" REL="nofollow">someone else</A>’s comment that your series of posts is <B>‘jaw-dropping’</B>. <BR/>The <I>Imperial Gendarmes</I> - the individual figures, the regiment, its name- are indeed gorgeous.<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to discovering the line infantry and artillery of Bohemia!<BR/><BR/>Best regards,<BR/>Jean-Louisabdul666https://www.blogger.com/profile/16172686098173637906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385210602449395922.post-242773156713179742008-12-06T02:12:00.000-08:002008-12-06T02:12:00.000-08:00Gorgeous figures, they make me itch to dig out my ...Gorgeous figures, they make me itch to dig out my Prince August moulds and do Horse and Musket in yet-another-scale. <BR/><BR/>Keep up the good work.Conrad Kinchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683395740934527502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385210602449395922.post-40037161029308402452008-12-06T01:53:00.000-08:002008-12-06T01:53:00.000-08:00Thank you for the description of the rationale beh...Thank you for the description of the rationale behind the method of painting.

But then you wrote about needing to paint more infantry and such, so there's hope we will get to see more of your wonderful miniatures, right?<BR/><BR/>I enjoy looking at all of the miniatures other people paint (and sculpt and modify, etc.). It's interesting to see how others approach things and to see nice work, even (especially?) when it's different from my own.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing! :-)Fitz-Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510866929782142007noreply@blogger.com
