Has BSP done any Napoleonic scenes?
Click to expand...

We are basically WWII guys, but we will do anything if a Manufacturer requests it......Not all of our scenes are sponsored by Manufacturers. We do some scenes with our own collection also. Neither Nick or myself collect Napoleonic figures, but we will speak to some of our Manufacturer friends and see if they want to do a Napoleonic Project.

In regards to doing our own scenes, we are going to do a lot more, because we can mix manufacturers, and it will give us a lot of versatility, it is something we have been looking forward to doing for a long time. Also just moving into out new Headquarters, has slowed our production volume a bit. Alex

We get a lot of questions on how we do our "Trick" photograph ....Basically we don't do trick photography. We create all of our environments from scratch, and we rarely use a preprepared backdrop.

We like the challenge of the hobby aspect, of building everything ourselves. It is easy to take a preprepared backdrop outside, in natural light, and shoot it on automatic, with your camera, it is fun, and produces a great result.

From the photography end, we set up lighting to produce the desired "Climate", and use various camera settings. No we are not professional photographers we just experiment.

As far as computer retouching, compare the pics above. Besides the obvious black and white. I airbrushed in dust by the tracks, to suggest movement, and feathered the fire and smoke effects a bit. As you can see the real untouched scene is basically the same. Alex

ZULUs......But we still have some tweaking to do ..... Then a Civil War Scene.....Then we are going to do some unsponsored, combined Manufacturer scenes....That will give us a lot of room to play....(Vick) when we play, I think we will see who is giving those nasty Germans
H?ll... Alex
 
Just a note to let you know we are revamping our site a bit, reworking some old photos and adding some never seen before pics. Stop by of you have not visited us for a while. There is much more work to do, so keep checking in. There are many new projects on the way.

And thanks to Figarti Miniatures, Frontline Figures, Collectors Showcase, Manage My Collectibles and Armchair General for helping us with our projects.

Another major Sponsor will be aboard soon, with a very unique project. Alex
 
To us at BSP, the ability to tell manufacturers what we would like to see produced is the greatest benefit of a Forum. This Forum is so vast that this aspect could get lost at times.

We have just opened a Members suggestion section, on our Web Site, so you can voice your ideas, on what you would like to see produced. It will be for Members only, so we know those who post, are serious modelers and collectors. We will inform the Manufacturers once it gets off the ground.

This will NOT be a Forum, just a factual list. We hope you will use this service, it could be an excellent benefit to all of us.We will limit suggestions to WWII, Vietnam and Modern Warfare for now. Alex

Very nicely done Nick and Alex and welcome to the Land of The Zulus......The Lt.
 
Very nice gentlemen. This is my favourite of the dios you have done to date. Looking forward to seeing more !!!
 
We didn't want to disappoint you hard core Zuluites, so we researched the project heavily. We replicated the North East end exactly, according to the reference material we had. And we chose the 18:15 to 24:00 attacks on 1-22-1897.

We were a little confused as to who was where, and Frontline's VC set contained some "Celebrities" which we used, and a few we didn't, because they were not at this location. Feel free to criticize our figure placement.

All in all, it was a fun project. I will take an overall shot to show you the background, which is not totality revealed in the pics we did so far. Alex

LT. Did you get my PM. Just LMK if you are interested before we move on.

Alex I did reply first to your PM but was told after sending it you were'nt accepting any PM and I then emailed you. In answer to it thanks for your offer but I'm all set.

For your knowledge Alex and not to critize all of those figures which are part of the V.C. Winners Personalities Set took part in one way or another. Looking forward to the overall shots along with others.......The Lt.
 
FYI...Nick built the redoubt, and made the Kraal walls. The mealie bags were from Frontline. Nick is selling the walls on our Web Site. If we decide to sell the redoubt, we will put it in our Surplus Warehouse, on our Site.

In our next project we will return to WWII.....Then ACW....Then a HUGE project we are getting together....details will follow...

Remember the rest of the pics are in Frontline's Gallery on our site.
 
There has been a lot of fantastic Zulu scenes done....The subject matter was not of much interest to us at BSP. But when Frontline wanted a Zulu scene done, Nick and I did a lot of research. Even with the "Colorful" garb of the Brits and the Zulus, we imagined the battle was quite nasty.

So as usual we depicted the battle in a grittier way than most. After seeing the results, we have become fans too. You know we love dirt and destruction. We are not here to play, but to convey the reality of battle. Alex

Well, said Alex. That's the "Elan Vital" of this hobby.

I am afraid this will be the last of the Zulu projects....We were supposed to do a big project with Conte, which involved ZULUS and some other stuff....It was talked about and planned for months...we prepared scenery etc. Then it vaporized ?????

Collectors Showcase supports our WWII projects

Figarti doesn't have ZULUS

Britains works with Hudson and Allen

And we used just about all of the Frontline ZULUS available. Maybe we will reconfigure in the future, and do another aspect of the Battle.

This was the overall battlefield facing North East, according to the research we did. Hey who are those guys in the background I outlined
