Horse Grenadiers of the Imperial Guard

"Heads up, gentlemen, these are bullets, not turds". Colonel Louis Lepic harangues the Grenadiers à Cheval as they are forming for a charge under intense fire at the Battle of Eylau in 1807. Painting by Édouard Detaille at the Chantilly Museum.

And below are my impression of the Grenadiers à Cheval of the Imperial Guard.  Figs are 18mm AB's.

Russian Infantry

First start on Russian 1812 troops.  Mk 1 Mod 0 Infantry.  Figs are Eureka/AB.

Spanish Dragoons Ready for Action!

Finished up some Spanish Dragoons for action in the Iberian Peninsula.  Figs are Blue Moon.  Pretty good second to AB Figures.  Cast bases are a little larger than necessary, riders need a bit of filing to sit on horses but detail and proportions are good. 

More Vietnam Stuff for Jim

Cranked out some more USA Vietnam vehicles and infantry for Jim.  The NVA is in for some hard times I fear . . .

Armored Quad .50 gun trucks, truck with .50, plain old trucks, M113 ACAV, M60's and M551's along with some heavy weapons personnel.  Minis are Old Glory except the M551's which are FoW.

A Rabble of Rebels

This time something for me . . . more 25mm Confederates.  Minis from Sash and Saber.  Twelve stands total plus some dismounted cav.

Figures for Nemesis Board Game

Finished up a job painting Nemesis figures.  Human figures were painted "conventionally," black prime, base colors, highlight, detail, finish.  The aliens however were done a bit differently.  Black prime to start, then a purple ink airbrush.  Armor/Bones/Crystals were given a chrome highlight and then I airbrushed a blend of transparent colors over the chrome highlight to get the chromatic turquoise effect.  I got the idea from a youtube by "The Grimy Painter."  Overall I think it gives a menacing dark glow to the aliens without covering them in shadows. 

More Vietnam Stuff

So this is a sample of some painting I did to add to Jim's collection.  Minis are Flames of War.
