Due to a family Illness I was unable to get much painted, So no VBCW, and just a couple of Vietnam wildlife. 2 Vietnamese Water buffalo, from Britannia (
LINK) in 1/72nd scale commonly called 20mm by wargamers. I did paint the horns black brown to begin with as that is more authentic but it just did not look right so I painted them cream and then white and now they look a little bright! Somedays I just can't win. The Flash on the camera has also lightened them considerably!
So that's a brief one and with luck post again on Saturday. And that will be VBCW as I finish this batch off!
If anyone from my wargames club reads this please ask Ian to bring the keys in case I cannot make it!
Cheers Guys. Please no sympathy in the comments!
Splendid looking beasts there Clint.
ReplyDeleteThank you. While I am not happy with them I may do a little re-paint today.
DeleteLovely beasties Clint :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tams. I am not happy with their horns and may re paint them today.
DeleteNice job Clint!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anne.
DeleteThings seem to have "slightly" improved health wise. The Dr Has been called to the house and has done a check up and he says it is nothing to worry about and that she has been over doing it. But I know it will only get worse as time passes by.
But for now all seem OK!
They do look very good, for some reason I find animals are harder to paint than people.
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam I must agree. I also find animals harder to paint Than people.
DeleteMoooo...
ReplyDeleteActually what noise do Water Buffalo make?
Thanks Lee. I would imagine a "Moo" type noise would be appropriate. I look forward to Smiffy getting some Critters for his Vietnam games!
