@@hikiy it was a Nassau regiment in the dutch order of battle. Alas the proper 28th regiment title on the shako. Cant remember the exact reason why but tap the regiment into google.

@@granapriego so was it german and it was in dutch command?

@@hikiy yes it was classed as a dutch line regiment. Alas the uniform and official dutch 28th Regiment designation.

@@granapriego oh ok

Thanks George. With my naps lost in storage i have been doing all sorts of weird scifi mini projects. I in typical style remembered the turtles after the video. They were fun to paint. Be good to reunite them with Rocksteady and Beebop and April. Glad you enjoyed it bud there is mote weird to come lol.

Ahh yes you are right. I am not a fan of the toxicity of resin quite yet. I was sort of waiting for it to come down before I would even think of getting one quite yet. Thanks for the info.

Thanks

Thanks Phil, I have to say my favourite part is the over head controls I added above the pilots seats.

Many thanks Joachim. It was a beast but a very enjoyable experience.

Thanks

Link?

@@Darkbirdy link to what?

Thanks Justin

Thanks mate

Thanks Sean, It is a beauty in real life.

Then it is possible that some or all of the very first batch of medals i got off of ebay that did say they were awarded. Perhaps that is true. I just cant see some one get rid of some really important medals. Particularly the silver star and the DSC? Maybe the engraving is a British thing engraved with name and army/service number. Thanks for the info very interesting.

@@granapriego Many of us who served in Vietnam felt betrayed by our government, and many threw away any medals they earned as a result. Today, if you go to a garage sale, you can find all kinds of medals. Many times when a veteran dies, the family doesn't have any desire to keep those medals and will just sell them to get rid of them. I served in Vietnam, Operation Urgent Fury in Granada, and Desert Shield Storm. I retired right after Desert Storm. I put my stuff away until this year. 32 years after I retired and built a shadow box of all my military medals and ribbons for my daughters who will get it when I'm gone.

Thanks, yes sometimes its fun to add weird things to the collection. They have been very fun to paint. I am looking forward to getting back to my Dutch. As soon as In locate them in storage that is.

Thanks a lot Phil. They are great figures they were fun to paint.

Thanks mate, loads of variety still some cool things to come. I just finished some OCP police from Robocop they were fun to paint up. Had fun exploring etsy and finding all sorts of really cool 3d print sets of figures. Anyway congrats on finishing the marathon. I have trouble doing 26 yards in my chair let alone miles lol. Also on getting into Team GB too.

Thanks Joachim, I have many more cool and unique things to do.

@@granapriegoThat's what makes the hobby so special. Have fun with all the ideas you have.

Thanks alot.

Thanks a lot buddy.

Thanks Justin I cant believe I forgot all their names lol. They were fun to paint a little fiddly to put together.

Thanks, Yes lots of different things. More to come too.

@@granapriego Excellent.👍😉

Thanks

Thanks steve.

Thanks George, they were fun figures to paint. Another video up soon. I have a lot to fit in. You light be able to find some episodes on KZfaq? Blakes 7 is its name its a low budget show from the late 70’s but its pretty good. But as always ended up going a bit weird towards the end and ended up being cancelled.

?

Hey mate, yes I am back sort of not quite regular but back. I am doing all sorts of random small bits and have more to come. I am about to do another video but its been delayed a few weeks. Just more figures to add to it. Hope your doing ok?

@@granapriego - look forward to catching up with what you’re on. Not too bad generally, mooching along I suppose. Doing Russian Napoleonics, WotR, Samurai, Hastings. Just about to upload a vid if it does indeed upload…

Thanks George, actually almost all my figures have eyes. Not that you can tell all the time because they are hidden below shako brims. Hope you’re doing well buddy.

Thanks mate, Yes love Blakes 7 I remember watching it it as a kid but not really getting it fully. It was not until i watched the whole series again about 8 years ago that I fell in love with it and understood it more. Yea the cobra figures are from a series called G I Jim. They also do storm shadow, zartan and Duke. Shame I cant find cobra troopers or crimson guard I would add a few squads to my Red Shadows for core space. Anyway I still have the series 3 version crew and a few others to do so B7 will appear again.

Thanks Sean, Yes for some reason I seem to have a bunch of unusual figures in at the moment. Things that are interesting to me that I have stumbled across.

Thanks a lot Phil.

Thanks Steve they were fun once you got going.

Thanks Joachim, appreciate it mate.

Thanks Justin

Thanks mate.

Thanks my friend how have you been?

Thanks George its not a full come back quite yet. I have lots of weird sci fi stuff to work on. But eventually naps will be back and then a totally different direction after that. Been enjoying your vids the 88 turned out great.

Thanks mate. Crooked dice dont stock them anymore. Its Beast in the Broch that do them now. Still have crooked dice on the stand pillar. Yes they definitely do not resemble a 1970’s BBC sci fi show. I just painted them in a similar style. Anyhow i may be working on a group based on the same colour clothing as the main protagonists of said show. Lol.

Thanks Sean, yeah i came across them by fluke an add on my facebook feed the same company as the red shadows. Really good quality 3d printed figures and very reasonable price. You can het metals as well from the company i show in the video. I am going to do the blake 7 crew next infact they are metals.

Thanks Justin.

Thanks Steve, its not full time yet but it felt good to put a video up and paint again.

Thanks a lot buddy, it will be a while before i al fully back but a few vids a month maybe is roughly it. No naps for a while too but lots of random bits. And of course a load of waffle from me lol.

Thanks Justin, hope to be fairly frequent but not back to my regular old schedule yet. Wont be for a while.

Thanks, it felt good to paint again even if I don’t have everything actually in front of me yet. My content could be a bit all over the place for a while.
