5 Burpas!

Well very unlikely that I will get any more on my 10mm VSF tank this week. Although I suspect a couple will comment at the club on Sunday.

However here are 5 more Burpas, for the NW Frontier. They are all 28mm Foundry castings from the Colonial North West Frontier and Darkest Africa ranges.


This time as I said I would I went for less bight colours although Matt did like them bright and Vibrant. While there are still some bright colours they do not dominate this time. Normally I email Matt some pics before I post on my blog but as he is on Holiday I have permission to put them straight on my blog as he has said he did not care what colours they would be. Still one hope he likes them. I hope to have 5 more finished by Friday night and the last one finished on Saturday. When I say last one I mean last one of the current batch.

Thanks for looking More Burpas in a couple of days. But the weather is such that the paint is drying on the brush as I paint and as for washes.... Still it could be worse it might be like this all the time!

  3. Great! Like the less bright versions myself, but how do they look from across the table? Always the big test ;)

    1. Thank you Kyle. I think I prefer these more muted colours. The next lot will be similar.... apart from the leader!

  4. Up to your usual high standards Clint; I must say I really do prefer the look of the toned-down colours of this lot.

    3. It is all fair Andy he does pay me for them and allows me to take as much time as I need. And I would rather have the work than not! so I am Happy!
