I got my new camera today: it's a Nikon P520. Not top of the line, but a sure improvement over my old Nikon. I can actually take clear pictures in the daylight, as well as FOCUS now!
I haven't done very much in terms of new painting; however, here are some new photos of my latest battalion (I did at least catch up on basing today).

| The focus using this camera is awesome and easy! In macro mode it will focus at almost point blank range. |

| Now that the figures actually are clear in the photos, they look very messy, my own "catch 22" I suppose. |
I'm really not sure. I may either order some of the Austrian units I want, or some more French: skirmishers and some cavalry are really tempting me now.
Great work on these figures Ben! And whatever you pick next, have fun painting them!

Great stuff Ben. the camera reveals all, but still they are looking very nice. besides its the enjoyment that is got from the painting process that makes it worth while.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gowan and Peter.
ReplyDeletePeter, I think the Austrians may be my next project. I'll aim for another brigade and perhaps finish by 2014!
Thanks Gowan. I still enjoy them, I think now I may have a good motivator to improve though. Thanks for looking!
Austrians means white uniforms! Not easy to paint! ;-)

DeleteNice work Ben!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray!

ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a lot of plans on the go!

Thanks! I placed another Eureka order yesterday, It looks like the Austrian 58th infantry and French 3rd Hussars will be next. I'm looking forward to doing cavalry!
ReplyDeleteYes! You will always need more French!!
ReplyDeleteCheers

Thanks for the suggestion! You are correct, there are never enough French! I've been experimenting with the Hussars, not enough work to show for it though...yet.
