Some nights I go down and just examine the figures, other nights I might just put on one color paint to the figures. Not the most productive way to paint, but it is progress.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-77920132669082603102021-10-16T19:10:56.162-07:002021-10-16T19:10:56.162-07:00Wonderful figures John.

Needless to say, reading it became difficult. I am still mad at myself passing up an original copy for $25; the binding was broke and the pages were separated. Still, the drawing are really inspiring.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-46642204829112271992021-10-13T16:54:37.719-07:002021-10-13T16:54:37.719-07:00Its a marvelous book (and the inspiration for me t...Its a marvelous book (<i>and the inspiration for me to name my ACW rules The Plastic Army of the Potomac </i>) and these are absolutely suitable to evoke it.

Most of the figures were painted over the period of 2 or 3 days. After that, it was a heavy coat of gloss lacquer. I'm happy with the toy soldier look.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-10129733560215814652021-10-12T22:39:17.318-07:002021-10-12T22:39:17.318-07:00An interesting source of inspiration.
