A great time was had by all, thanks for the hospitality, Victor, see you next time so can see your current projects 'in the flesh', rather that just the images, so I can really see the 3D aspect. They are true masterpieces 😁 John

Looks like you are getting them ready for 'inspection' :D John

I'd have to agree with that Brendan, John

The figures I have displayed have assembled and painted from castings about 20 years ago and were languishing on a shelf in my collection. ACW hasn't been a big interest to me, but I just loved these figures made in Australia by Paul Clarke of Shenandoah Miniatures. Recently I was sorting my...

Mike, there are couple of shops in Brussels, do a search and you can find them. As far a regional city, the only thing that I found were at Sunday street markets where you may find old figures. Bruges John

Very nice :) John

Mike, you don't really need a guided tour, just wander around yourself, its a great museum and spend about half a day there. Waterloo is another 'Must see' place to go, and spend a day or two around the Flanders Battlefields, stay in Ypres and go to the Menin Gate for the Last Post ceremony...

Here's another from my collection. French Royal Artillery c 1750 on a defensive fortification. Tradition of London casting I painted. John

Check out Latvian maker ArtIG, they produce many of the Marshals and maybe you can identify them on thier website http://www.artig.lv/ John

Looking good Victor... :D I hope they are ready for inspection next month !!!! John

Hot and sweaty AUSSIE gunners ..... I remember ....... :ROFLMAO: John

Prussian Foot Artillery 1815 - SPERIA 3-D printed that I painted. Austrian Artillery 1805- SPERIA 3-D printed that I painted. Royal Horse Artillery 1815 - Hinchliffe/Caldercraft kit that I assembled and painted. Note that all these guns have a full detachment manning the guns. John
