Being under development by Herr Fabenschwein (paintpig) for the H-K
artillery corp with the gracious help of the Erzherzogin Viktoria Ellen. Whilst some
in the palace court and military had initial misgivings of handing the
Erzhzerzogin the task of selecting dye's and accoutrement detailing, it was very
much to every one's relief that the finished article bore no resemblance
to a peacock. I have noticed, however, Herr Fabenschwein has a little
less hair lately..........
Beautiful painting. Very lovely colors. Dean

Thanks guys, Viktoria Ellen think's the coat should be lighter so I will do one more test piece and then get an order off to Nic, I had this figure lying around spare and primed so it became the lab rat. Looking forward to reading your article T Girl, only got my W&SS sub organised two weeks ago so I'll have to get a copy from the news agent.
ReplyDeleteArtillery crew generally dropped their coat in action, and the light waistcoat would soon turn dirty: what about exchanging the colors between the coat and the waistcoat?
