Great job on those highlanders!

My replacement fold down writing desk arrived on Saturday 

I got the chance to 'christen' it last night 

Last batch of this echelon prepared, 17 various German cavalry for Peter to use as signallers etc

It is slightly smaller than my last desk and the pigeon holes are laid out differently which makes it feel a bit strange when using it, I'm sure I'll get used to it

I'm sure you will, Paul. 

Cheers - Phil

Looks like I need to move from Photobucket, any suggestions for free picture hosting?

Hello Paul

Looks like I need to move from Photobucket, any suggestions for free picture hosting?

Photobucket has become very wobbly for me and has taken a savage dislike to Adblockers.

The three top contenders I am looking at are:-

Of course as a card carrying member of the Ancient Order of Procrastinators I haven't got around to selecting which one yet  .

Thanks GOM, I'll have a look & let you know which I go with

[paulr]

Cavalry horses base coated and highlighted

Except for one horse where I only noticed I'd missed a couple of small areas of base coat near the reins  when about to highlight
Base coat touched up, will be highlighted when properly dry

Errant horse dry brushed

Manes, tails and hooves done on all

Errant horse dry brushed

I hate that when that happens - still, I suppose they must come from somewhere, the beasts knight errants ride.

Your work ethic continues to inspire 

[paulr]

Blazes, socks and saddle blankets done

[paulr]

Uniforms, helmets, boots, saddle rolls, rifles, lances done 

On to the details

[paulr]

Got distracted, only got reins & harness done today

I based and labelled the Highland battalion recently, turned out very well  Currently going to work before the sun rises and getting home at sunset so not much chance to take pics yet I'm afraid.

Received the "small" scenery order I had made for various WW1 scenarios today too - very tightly packed box of goodies to prepare in time for Call to Arms in a few weeks. 

Just hope the thermometer rises enough to allow paint to dry.....winter has really arrived here in NZ this week.
