I have to admit it is not easy to paint miniatures when the outside temperature is 22º C, the sun is shining and summer is about to end! However, I have managed to scrape some spare time to continue the painting of the French Hussars in 'shako-ruleau'. The below pictures show the current state of the production line, after applying lighting shadings on the base colors.

Meanwhile, I am starting the
planning of the next Lasalle project, that will be centered on the previous da
ys to the battle of Leipzig in the southern flank, when
Murat faced the approach of the full Allied Army of Bohemia, while his master was trying to chase Bluecher and Bernadotte at
Duben.
Watch this space!
They look very nice Rafa - I like your production line painting technique!
ReplyDeleteThey are coming along really nicely Rafa. The 5th (and 7th) as Lasalle's infernal brigade are real favourites of mine.
ReplyDeleteVery nice and great way of organising the painting. I would have gone back to this scale too if others played it locally, it's what I started with many years ago. Great site by the way, I look forward to trying out some of the scenarios you've done up here!! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking cavalry, I do like this blue color Rafa..."Chargez"!
