Thank you for the correct link !

You really have diverse interests...like your Blog.

Your office display was a nice way to decorate and show your hobby.

It is nice that your eldest daughter will assist you and she shows some real talent at painting.
Judging from the pictures, you can see she has picked up some of your abilities.

Your conversion of the 'Detail' Saracen and Knight is amazing - Good job !

Thanks fro sharing your work.

Your deetail conversions are amazing! I also really like your plains indian and your other knights! You're a masterful painter. Thanks for giving us the link.

Was nice to see
Continue the good work

 

[The Green Knight]

Thanks for all the kind comments Gentlemen! I will continue posting in my blog and share some pictures in our forum as well. Yes my eldest has the talent. Sadly she doesn't want to do it anymore. She has turned her sights into playing the guitar and is now a very good guitar player. I had a lot of fund converting the Deetail knights. I will show you guys more conversions. Right now I am working on a friend's Crimean war Russian army. We used Hat French Greatcoats and converted them into russian infantry. I will post pictures soon. Again many thanks for your kind comments. It's quite an honor being in this forum with great collectors and genuine blokes.

 

[The Green Knight]

Sorry, I meant I had a lot of FUN and not FUND converting the Deetail knights. hahaha. No funds at all.

Thanks Benjamin for your kind comments.

I am currently working on the Crimeans and converting some Airfix British Napoleonics as well as some Conte Zulu Warriors for a friend. I will post them soon.

Hi Larry,
Please describe how you converted these figures. If it is not too hard I may give it a shot.
Best wishes,
Benjamin

 

[The Green Knight]

I will try to document how I did the conversions Benjamin. But to start with, my tool kit consists of green putty, Blue Tac, Paper clips, Swiss army knife, hobby knife, sculpting pen, dental tools that I inherited from siblings who used to be dentists and two good pairs of clippers. I will take a picture of my toolbox. Cheers!

Hello Guys,

Just sharing my recent conversions of Airfix British Napoleonics. You can see more pictures at pinoytoysoldiers.blogspot.com.au. Thanks!

Larry,

Those Airfix conversions look great!

Can I ask which brand green putty do you use?

Scott

 

[The Green Knight]

Thanks Scott! I use green stuff putty. I buy from an Aussie supplier through Ebay. His is similar to the one being sold by Games Workshop. The putty comes in a ribbon form with two colors, yellow and blue. You mix them together till they turn into a single hue of green and by then the putty is ready.

I know there are other sellers of the same or similar putty under different brands other than GW. GW charges way too much so I don't recommend that you buy that particular brand. I am a big fan of the green putty though as it is quite easy to manipulate and I've used it for everything from making horse reins, capes, flags, heads and limbs.

I hope this helps.

Larry

 

[The Green Knight]

Just to clarify further and to make my answer to your question clearer Scott, I buy a generic green putty from this Aussie Supplier. There is no known brand. But I believe, for as long as you buy the yellow and blue A and B putty, you should have the same results. Each country should have its own share of manufacturers for this kind of putty, I reckon.
