Looking good.

I take NO credit what so ever for the amazing paint job Tom put in on these 40mm Hinton & Hunt Hussar figures. My role in these is simply basing them up to show off their glory.








Where possible, I tried to save Tom's Hinton & Hunt labels and reattach them to the display bases








They really are magnificent

[toxicpixie]

I never cease to be in awe of your output, Will!

[paulr]

Seconded

    

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Figures look good but the bases ??   

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

More basing up for Tom. 42mm Napoleonics, mostly Hinton Hunt. I can claim no credit for the amazing painting on the figures themselves, which are truely magnificent.


Funny how the poses work out


Some uniform diversity here


The two on the left are paid less than the other two!


Some heavies and gun crews


Back of them


Did not purposily group by colour, honest!


Looking good


Charge!


Artilleryman

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

More of Tom's 54mm (not 42 as previously adertised) based up. As ever, I claim no credit for these, except the bases. Bonus points awarded for correct identification of all units.



The figures are fairly randoly picked by me at first, so if you see some that should not go together (like teh Russian foot and French officer later), tough!


Told you...


Lancers with a friend




Hussars


Back of them, note the chords (made of fine wire) on the bugle.


Different officers


Tom's detailing on these is so impressive


The drummers weigh a fair amount as those drums are solid metal!

The halbard is cool


Good mix here


Strong characters


Officers


These figures are just lovely


I did strenghten the sword after


The whip is so fine


Thos chap ended up on his own, hope he was not lonely.


Love the details


British foot


Again, check those chords on the trumpeteer!


Possibly, 60th foot and a guards officer


I think its 60th as 95th had different trousers?


I can claim a tiny piece of credit on this one, as the hat's headband, flagstaff and socks were not finished.


It's a great figure, the flag feels like (and sounds like) tin to give it stiffness, I'm sure I will be corrected.


Certain his head was here earlier...

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Been a while, but Tom has dropped in a new batch for basing and a few fixes.

Again, I claim no credit for the painting on most of these, as Tom's work is outstanding.
A pair of Napoleons




An Ottoman with a 'Jingaling Johnny'.


I painted the 'Jingaling Johnny', hatband, the metalwork and weapons on this.






The horse is lovely (Hello Father Ted)


An Hussar musician, I painted reins and the base on this one.


The details are extraordinary


The pva was still wet on the shrubbery, as I needed to drop these off with Tom.


Great display case he has too
