Growing Grass.........

I started on the base for the SS Squad leader.  Its a John Jeffries product, and I used Celluclay , white glue, pigment, dirt for the base groundwork.  While it was wet, I cut the bristles off of some cheapo chip brushes and "planted" the bristles to simulate grass...  Then some color with green and brown give it some life.

Bonehead Models 200mm SS Squad leader

Here is the new project.  It's Mike Good's Bonehead models SS squad leader. It's a biggie, 200mm.   I am painting this with a fall color Plane Tree pattern smock.  Its slow going because of the sheer size.  Excellent model- fit and sculpting is top notch.......

60th Royal American Finished

60th Regiment of Foot- Royal American 1755
This is the completed Frank Miniatures kit.  Painted the reds with Scale 75 red set.  I am quite impressed with these paints.  Easy to work with, dries dead flat.   This one of my favorite kits so far.  Love the character and subject.
