I Live....

Wow...I really must apologize for not updating for so long. For those that commented on previous posts, I'm so sorry. School's been taking over my life as of late...but with finals nearing an end I have time to post.

I'm pleased to introduce Lt. Gyles Durfee, of the Praetorian Mounted Police. Currently detached to the 32nd Foot, he acts as a guide an advisor to Major M.B. Fletcher-Jones.



He serves in my command squad as just another lasgun...but he looks pretty darn cool if I do say so m'self.


While I'm at it, I'm pleased to show my latest squad. The lads still need a few touches, but they're definitely able to field.

Leman Russ Tank

Greetings! It's been a while since I've been able to post, but here I am now with photos of my latest work.

After months of sitting unattended on my desk, I finally finished up my Leman Russ.



I decided a long time ago that the Praetorian war machine utilized three metals: gold, silver, and bronze. It gives it a Victorian/Steampunk feel, I think.


Here's the stout tank commander! Thank to Col. Gravis' tutorial on the subject, I was able to sculpt the epaulettes to much success. The head actually comes from an Empire infantry set, but I thought that his look was just perfect!

Whoops...

Hey everyone!

I'm sorry I've not kept up with this blog, but the truth is that since school started I've had little time to work on the poud 32nd. With the coming of summer, though, I hope for that to change.

I've finally started working on my Sharpe figure at long last. I've sculpted the shako on him, and I have to say that I'm pleased with how it came out. The next step is to sculpt some hair to sort of fil the head out, but that's a task for when my finals are finished, hehe.

And upon re-watching "Gunga Din," I've decided that I want to have a squad/company of native levies. Just to add a bit more variety to my force.

Stay tuned! More updates to come hopefully!
