Taking advantage of the holiday today, I finished up the NQSYW unit I've been working on the past few weeks. I don't usually post closeups, but I'm curious about how much work people typically put into these Prince August castings. Pictures of our battles demonstrate that they don't need to have too much detail to look fine en masse, but I like to paint at least a little more than is necessary.
The next task is to prime some completer figures for the mercenaries acquired last year (

looking good!

Well done. I'm with you on the detailing. You could certainly play the game without it, but it clearly brings the troops up to another level when the work is over. Looking forward to seeing the whole regiment displayed. - Mike
ReplyDeleteAgree with justMike: that little extra gives each unit that little bit extra character as well.
