The Other Partizan 2017 - A picture review.

I've just got back from The Other Partizan. Hopeless day for buying stuff.

 I've been doing a lot of clearing out so didn't want to be tempted by a random new thing.  There were some Perry Napoleonics I'd hoped to find but no joy, so my haul was three metallic paints and some bases. I spent more on the entrance fee and the burger than the stash.

I was tempted by some of the weathering powders and paints, but want to do some more research online first.

A sucker for the shiny games...

However I got to a good look at a god chunk of the demo games.  A Partizan always has been about the games for me.  Kelham Hall suffered from it's many dark corners and the new venue is much lighter which makes it easier to enjoy the games.  I had the wrong lens on my camera - so there's limited depth of field on a lot of the shots... but here goes

28mm Prussian Napoleonic Line Infantry - Elite or Calpe?

I wish I paid attention when I painted things (probably in 2003/4. This is a definite 1813 regiment, but I can remember which.  The Flag is a bought one and the  figures are either or Elite or I think more likely to be Calpe.  I painted them using this book.

Prussian Napoleonic gun and limber 28mm

Just a quick sharing - Connosiuer, I think.  Painted ages ago but I finished the basing recently. Horses using oil wipe method.

28mm Perry Miniatures Napoleonic Voltiguers painted as swiss from the 4th regiment

These are a group of 6 Perry Miniatures figures painted up as swiss - probably about 1811, 1812.   

I've popped them up for auction here.  

A thought on the pictures:  I photographed this in bright sunlight - which makes it easier to get them clearly in focus - but is too contrasty for my liking.  I wonder if bright sunlight but with a diffusing box is the way to go, benefits of lots of light but no harsh shadows.
