So last night I sit down and decide to work on one of my weaker areas of painting. The Horse. Sadly I had forgotten how badly miscast the inner legs of my horse were. As you can plainly see in this picture. There is no way in hell I could win anything with the model in that bad of shape. Sadly none of my files can reach inside of the legs at that point. What could I do? Greenstuff and try and re-shape the legs? Possibly. But at this point the project is dead in the water.
Bah Humbug!
And this is where I sat with the Colonel this evening. I am not happy with the golds on his epaulets. I am really rusty. Just goes to show if you stop painting on a regular basis and for a long time, you can lose a lot of skill.
Well he will just have to do for what he is. And will be included in my 1st French Regiment for LaSalle. On a side note I am anxiously awaiting a shipment I just placed with Warlord Games for a unit of Cacadores!

Sorry to hear about the miscast woes, and the lack of info must be frustrating. Oh well, be sure to post pics regardless when it's all finished!
