Hi everyone,

So this project is nearly finished, but I still have a few hurdles to go.  What I have done is finished painting the ground troops and added the few layers of weathering to the troops.

I also finished painting up the shnackdillo as well, and then dry fitted the models to the base and took a few photos.  I then glued the models to the base and modelled them to the base with some grout.

Next week I will post and  show the finished Dewback rider.  Then the week after I will paint up the sand and present the finished model.

Until then my best regards and I hope you enjoy the photos,

Dewback Rider is Ready

Hi everyone,

So I managed to finish the Dewback Rider over the weekend and I took some pictures before attaching the model to the base and filling the gaps at the feet with grout.

The last step is to paint the base.  This is probably the most daunting task, because I have to make sand look somewhat interesting.

What I can say for sure is that I won’t post again until I finish this project, so the next post will be the last.  I will then continue painting my 1/72 Napoleonic French army for the Peninsular (1812 period).

I nearly went crazy painting this army, so I took a 3 month break and worked on other more relaxing projects like this one. Now though, I need to soldier on and continue with the French.

Until the next post, keep safe and my best regards,

NR

Hi everyone,

I have finished another project, for better or worse, and I have already started a new one.

In the meantime, I present ‘No Droids Here’, my latest diorama.  I began this diorama because I thought it would be easy and relaxing, but when I came to do the sand effects I was quickly corrected.  Trying to make sand look interesting is not easy.

Well, I hope you like it.  Until my next project be safe and take care.
