Thanks Ian 👍

Cheers Paul 👍

Ignore the groundwork, as I will tie that in with the second figure and the base, but I reckon the officer is pretty much there. #histscalemodels #scalemodels #miniatures

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons

Black Army Models also do some Serb & Croat figures in 1/35. Anyway, just food for thought Adam 🙂

This crew would fit the timeframe with the type of webbing and body armour

Or if you want something a little different (and I love the way you do different in your vignettes and dioramas), then you could do it in the colours of the UN in Bosnia. Pics of Warriors from 1st Bn, The Devonshire and Dorset Regiment (finest Reg’t in the British Army! 😉) in Bosnia, 1995.

Also, don’t forgot that dry mud on highlights will look lighter than in shadows. A common mistake is just painting one colour of dirt all over without thinking how it relates to the light. Using AK Ultra Matt varnish as a thinner will keep the weathering dead Matt too. Hope this helps.

Nicely done. Weathering can be done with oils or with acrylic washes using thinner (I do the latter). See pic below. Although US (and a colourised photo) note where the mud is and how it has dried. Rather like a veh, there will be more dry mud but maybe wetter and darker patches on boots, knees etc.

Awesome Rhys! Congrats

Thanks Rob. Rather blown away by such nice feedback. Thank you 👍

Perhaps with this figure available from Field of Glory

Maybe US Forestry Service colours? Could make for a nice vignette. 🌲🪓🪵

Hmmm, the Indian Army officer needs some work aligning hands with arms with sword etc, and I was in a painting mood, so quick project switch. #WIP of a 54mm white metal Officer from the 33rd of Foot, Crimea, 1854. Painted with acrylics. #histscalemodels #scalemodels

Anyone else read this and hear “and so is Michael Fish” in their heads?? 🤣

Thanks Noel. I think I was dreaming of different shades of buff leather by the end!

Next up on the bench, this rather splendid chap from Art Girona. #scalemodels #histscalemodels

English Civil War bust by FeR Miniatures painted in acrylics.

I could keep playing with the metals for weeks, but think I’m going to call this one here. English Civil War bust by FeR Miniatures painted in acrylics. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #bust

A work in progress of a model bust depicting a Parliamentary cavalry officer in the English Civil War.

#WIP - Not much bench time in the last couple of weeks but at least this FeR Miniatures English Civil War parliamentarian now has his lobster pot on! Still a long way to go but enjoying taking it slowly. #histscalemodels #scalemodels #busts

Managed a bit more work on the face. Going to leave it there for a while and come back to it after a couple of days so that my eyes see new things! I’ve got to say though, I’m loving this bust. #histscalemodels #scalemodels #buildthestash

#WIP - another few hours at the bench today allowed me to start getting colour down on the suede leather Buff Jacket and begin sketching out his face. Light source is from his front left. #histscalemodels #scalemodels #bust #buildthestash

Miniature bust of an English Civil War parliamentary cavalryman.

This weekend I managed to get in some bench time and start work on this rather lovely FeR Miniatures English Civil War bust. #scalemodels #histscalemodels #buildthestash

This one was cold cast, as have the 1/35 figures I’ve bought off them previously, but not sure if newer stuff is 3D printed.

And she evidently knows the curls on her A’s better than this Aussie! 😂😂

Is that not an Alabama hat on the prettier of the two hikers?

I’m really enjoying pushing myself into different genres and this 75mm C15th Turkish Sipahi from PanzerArt was a joy to paint. Painted with AK and Vallejo acrylics. It was my first time using real metallics but I think they came out ok. Flag made with green stuff. #HistScaleModels #ScaleModels

Roll tide!

Lovely tonal variation on that hull Adam.
