You can really feel the rain and the muddy ground. Great bases. :thumbup:  :thumbup:

\" ... Artillerieeinheiten der wichtigsten Nationen (Preußen, Österreich, Russland, Großbritannien ...) sind \"gefĂ€rbt\". Das Holz der Kanonen ist bei den Preußen z.B. blau, weil das die Farbe der Nation im Spiel ist (grĂŒn fĂŒr Russland usw.). Das alles sieht scheiße und spielzeugmĂ€ĂŸig aus...\"

Suuuper!! Das Modell ist tol und die Besatzung exzellent bemalt. Allerdings frage ich mich, warum die RĂ€der der Kanone noch so sauber sind ;)

@Tankred

The wheels,the men, and the cannon itself where given a fresh cleaning by the crew as they are an extremely tidy bunch of guys and after the fight with the British they have a fashion exhibition for the latest Cannon magazine!It just wouldn\'t do to have a speck of unsightly mud on the wheels now would it! :P

Seriously though,I started the army with clean painting and to have some clean and others dirty wouldn\'t look very cohesive.I sacrificed some realism in this regard to keep the army tied together. ;)

I\'m thinking of doing a Napoleonic army in a dirty and muddied appearance some day as great coats really are nice to do that with. 8)  Maybe a crusader army with a rougher look is also a possibility.When doing modern armies I like my vehicles pretty beat up and dirty.I did this with FOW btw. However,as you pointed out I normally prefer my miniatures painted  clean.  ;)

Still,thanks for the question as I always welcome them. :D

In keeping with our Bunker Hill project for Tactica I\'ve decided to build some terrain and start some civilians that are period specific.First up is this meeting house that I always liked from Giles blog and decided to build it myself.The mayor and a two wheeled tumbrel are Perry miniatures.The Perry AWI civilians are just wonderful(I know,all their stuff is ) :love: and I\'ve now had a chance to paint up a few.


I imagine this to be the town mayor greeting a porter transporting a tumbrel full with ammo and supplies up to the local militia. :)

Just awesome... literally. I seriously can\'t summon any interest for this conflict, except on two occasions: While watching the series \"John Adams\" and when staring wide-eyed at your and Antipater\'s contributions. All my thumbs up.
