Wow! You are a painting machine! These Saxons are terrific and will soon be plentiful enough to fill up a gaming table.
ReplyDeleteGreat work!
Hi Jon, I'm not to sure about me being a "painting machine" :o)
DeleteI started my Napoleonic Saxon Infantry project during July and managed to paint 4 Infantry Regiments (8 Battalions) plus the 4 Grenadiers Battalions.
I will be posting pictures of the other 2 Saxon Infantry Regiments soon, I didn't really want to open the "flood gates" to show you guys or "show off":oP (ego is a dirty word) my painted infantry regiments in one posting! :o)
Thanks Jon!
cheers,
Completing 12 Napoleonic battalions in less than two months is incredible productivity in my book!
DeleteWell done!
You are also a "painting machine" Jon, :o)
DeleteI am amazed the work you put into your figures and projects. Also you are one of few hobbyists that I know of who can write great articles of the written word, of their work...where as I'm lousy typing descriptions of my painted miniatures, anyway.. really enjoy reading your blog posts/articles - Awesome!
cheers,
You are too kind, Sir!
Delete:o)
DeleteMore beautiful troops in white, Phil. Those standards really pop too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, The GMB flags are great and look far more impressive than my painted miniatures! :oP
Deletecheers,
One of the most beautiful uniforms of the period to my opinion...and your job is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil! much appreciated!
DeleteAnother great looking unit. Definitely ready to defect, I mean, um... fight for the Emperor! :-)
ReplyDelete:o) yeah, Saxons had a reputation defecting/abandoning their allies during the Napoleonic Wars..
DeleteThanks Jason!
Great Saxons, love all that white, i wish i could produce painted figures as fast as you!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris!.... Don't you dare change your commitment and pace of painting your miniatures. I would rather have your "patience" painting miniatures Chris ;o) than my raw aggressive approach :o) painting figures.
Deletecheers,
Simply amazing, All that white just beautiful. Very inspiring !
ReplyDeleteThank you Joe! I notice you have been a little quite with your blog activity - busy with work, real life etc. I guess?
Deleteall the best,
cheers,
This project is coming together beautifully. I hope you'll do a group shot at the end.
ReplyDeleteHi there Lawrence, yes indeed planning on doing brigade photo shots of the figures/regiments and one day photos of the Saxon division arrayed...long way to though, currently working on the Saxon Light Infantry.
Deletecheers,
