The base is now securely in the wargames figure cabinet awaiting deployment sometime soon |
Just a quick post today as over the weekend I finally manged to finish a command base for the 1805-07 project. These are a wonderful set of figures from Elite Miniatures from their "Collectors" range painted for me by Nathan at Elite Miniatures Australia some time ago.
Love the ADC mounting up |
Not the best photo but you can certainly see the character in the figures |
Great job by Nathan painting these up |
I have been working on some Austrian Command bases as well so some shots of them tomorrow I think.
Very nicely done and the gold braid works well with the blue you have used.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lawrence and yes, Nathan captured the braid perfectly. Glad you liked it so much.
DeleteCarlo, the French are great!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Dmitry. I am really enjoying all your recent posts as well.
DeleteVery handsome command stand, Carlo! I really enjoy seeing your Elite figures. They have so much panache.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jonathon and I have to agree with your observations on Elite Miniatures, and Connoisseurs while we are at it. They have a style and dynamic animation of there only
DeleteWonderful painting and basing, congrats!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Phil

Hi JJ - Yes it is a nice looking command stand thats for sure. Very happy with how it turned out.
DeleteNice work - I love it when people are able to evoke a sense of scene.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much FMB
DeleteNice group of figures Carlo. You're right Elite have a very animated nature to them. Very nice paint job and setting. They'll look great in the field!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you Kevin and I haven't forgotten about those sabres btw! I really need to get my backside into gear on those. The Elites are a special figure and definitely a throwback to Connoisseur, Gilder etc. I like them very much.
DeleteLooking good Carlo. Ready to lead the Eagles to victory!
ReplyDeleteHey Fish - great to hear from you. I hope all is good in Gods Country mate and hope to see you down in the city again soon.
DeleteFantastic Carlo the boys certainly painted up very nicely and thank you also for mentioning Elite Miniatures.
