I started basing the troops from the 250 man project today. Although they need another coat of flat lacquer, here's what I have done so far.
The five Rebel regiments contain 44 bases (132 figures). I have another two regiments' worth of bases already done, so I can field a couple of brigades.
I ran out of bases before I could finish the rest of the Union troops, but I have enough painted troops for over 60 bases.
With the various poses and uniform colors they look quite nice based up! If you don't tell people you painted them in a week they'll think you spent 6 months on them!
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteWill you be using a spray lacquer, or brushing it on?
They look real nice, i think it's about time i based the rest of my British after seeing these guys.
ReplyDelete...and you call that a "non-award winning" paint job?
ReplyDeleteOutstanding work Scott!!
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......"
ReplyDeleteAnd I only have 4 sticks done!!
They look great Scott!
A new challenge for you...Paint every participant in the Battle of Gettysburg.
By Noon...
On Thursday...
Well Done! Don
They look great. What kind of minis are you using?
ReplyDeleteBigRedBat, It's a spray lacquer. I used to use Testor's Dullcote, but I've been trying Krylon's flat lacquer lately, and it's just as good and cheaper.
ReplyDeleteJohn, they're Battle Honors.
ReplyDeleteWhat type of flags did you use? Great job on the figures.
ReplyDeleteSome of the flags are from GMB, some are from Warflag.
