Re: Re: Re: Kalafat 1853 - Part 2 by Head for the Guns Hank

ThanKs Brian and Uwe ,its apptrciated comments you send.I feel bad buying so many, but i did try and indicate early that i would aggressively purchase 25 sets ..somehow. Okay so i went over 25 a little bit...
I am sure others have done similar before me.

I have not had this much fun foe a long time with teh hobby.If S-R make CW artillery with Turkish crew i will do this buying again. I would need 20 crews.If there was 4 turk crew,drivers and riders in a box thats fine.

CW Specialist SET miners railway guys Hemaphore guys ,Uwe suggested rocket troop be good idea in allied artillery.Russian tatar supply carts.
etc mules pack.ah me dreamer.,sorry okay next week we have more fun.

Great job Hank,
Is that a model railroad tunnel/feature in the first photo? If it is can you remember the manufacturer and maybe the model number.

Thanks,

RHR

Hi RHR, Thanks very glad it pleases you,its alot of fun doing and i intend to send in more if it remains of interest.

Yes sir it is model railway Hill which i adapted by adding woodland scenicc trees and flock with elmer woodpaste (simple)for effect. It was 8 years ago i buy , i recall it was in comic store box consignment sale for $5 a treasure for a few bucks.It look much better on caamera than real life.Its 2 different makes hills but i blend using same trees and flock.The mat is old gamescape and terrain block also(sadly defunct.Have a fun week

Dear Hank

Ambitious and lots of toil evident but a labour of love above all.

Thanks for getting the pics out quickly and sharing them with us.

Much appreciated.

Re: Kalafat 1853 - Part 2

Hi Dave OB thanks is very special remarks coming from you professori.

I know i am not portarait painter which is sad.I will only ever be landscape.It takes a while to know the turk figures and get tricks to try smooth the bumps with secondary(n) coat of paint etc.(you will know what i mean.) Lookk forwars to your next contribution.

To change the subject I have something quite diverse coming out i am most excited about (for my limitations )! have fun hftgh
