Hi all
Another whinge, I am halfway through painting my Piano French Old Guard Grenadiers and thought I would paint the General Lasalle at the same time to add variety.
It was going pretty well until it came to doing the hussar braiding using Vallejo gold. What a nightmare, my old eyes couldn't follow the casting lines nor see the tip of the size O brush I was using. So I have to admit defeat on the fine detail and just accept I am not good enough to do the figure justice. it is so deeply frustrating.
Here is what the figure should look like (from Piano Wargames website, such an excellent job by Stephan Huber). I will post photos of mine when it is finished.
I thought I should add my figure as it is about 90% finished to the best I can.
