Hello Gai,
how did i miss this thread? :shock:
from your smaller sign-off picture, i mistook them for French :oops:
i'm not a wargamer and it took me a while to say "i dont care if it not accurate" too
now, to me, as long as i can recognise them as french or prussian etc...thats good enough :wink:
but it is also very kind of you to state that "it is not accurate", otherwise kids (or cheng :oops: ) may take your customs as Gospel and use them as guides
i like your red coats with those silver lines across their bodies(too bad those old PM klikies like Olces's avatar with such line printing has been discontinued...its too hard for me to paint lines like these too
and i like your prussians' shirts...very skillful painting!!
and my OLCESE friend,
pardon my ignorance,
if Parkinson's is not too painful (to be customising)...
you could try masking and spraying....the joy of customising can make me forget any pain(i have two bad knees from sports and hope i wont have artritis for a long time to come) :wink:
of course masking trembling hands is quite tricky...but its an advantage when you spray...no 'over-spraying' on one spot
