Well, at long last I have now been able to do some painting. It was months since my last brushstrokes. To get back to the swing of things, I have finished the remaining three ACW Command figures from Perry Miniatures.

I quite enjoyed them but the faces were again a particular challenge. I found the detail, especially in that area, in my opinion, a little bit "fuzzy".

Also, I actually started with the eyes for the very first time after applying the base colour. Made it bit easier for me to get the "look" right. Not quite perfect yet but getting there, I think.

Here is also a picture of the whole Command Group:

I have now uploaded all my files again and took some time to re-construct my website. I am by no means an expert but wanted to keep my design very simple which makes it quicker to update. As you were probably aware, my server security was breached and malicious codes have been implanted on 46 pages of my site, as it seems I was not the only site to have been attacked. The guys from my Webhosting Service helped me no end and their server security was increased as a result. Google's Webmaster tool helped also a lot and with their help, I made sure my website was cleared! My page has got a "green tick" again on Google's Search Engine.

I deleted all my pages and started all over again. My site should be clean by now. Thank you all for your patience and I like to apologise to all if your visit to my page has resulted in an Virus attack on your PC.

If any of my visitors experience any broken links or other inconsistencies, please contact me by dropping me a line or so via EMAIL, so I can sort it out as soon as possible.

About my painting:

I am working on some bigger commissions at the moment, which include 12 Napoleonic Lancers of the Vistula Legion, 6 mounted Knights of the Hundred Year War and 4 Guns and 26 Crew Members & Officers of the Napoleonic British Horse Artillery. I will keep you informed about the progress of these.

I am also painting the remaining three Miniatures of my Confederate Command from Perry Miniatures, just for my own pleasure during some spare time.

I am in the process of re-designing my whole webpage. I was meaning to this for some time now and have finally got round to doing it this weekend. I will ask all my visitors to be patient and I will let you know as soon as all links are working again! Sorry for the inconvenience!

My first entry for the new year and things are finally moving...well me and my wife that is but first things first, as I also have some hobby news.

Just before Christmas I was able to finish my first Victrix figure. I received the metal figures as a special gift from Julian from Victrix. I added the pictures of the British Napoleonic Pioneer to my website.

I also had a lovely Christmas and I really enjoyed the few days off during the Bank Holidays. I received loads of wonderful gifts. Most of them, of course, hobby related. I got some sets of the new Foundry Napoleonic colours, a box of the Victrix Plastic Waterloo British Infantry Centre Company (which are really great), one box of the Plastic French Napoleonic Line Infantry from Perry Miniatures, also a few boxes of their Agincourt range, a 75 mm metal figure from Pegaso Models depicting a mounted 15th Century "Roaming Knight", which is an absolute beautiful sculpt and some more hobby related books. I surely have been spoiled.

Unfortunately my painting time has not improved and will has to stop completely for the time being, as we are now moving on the 14. February into our new place. I had to pack already most of my painting material away. Me and my wife still have to work right up to the moving date and therefore need to do as much as we can now.

My apologies to everyone in advance if I should not get back to you immediately via email. I will try to stay online as long as I can before finally packing the computer away and setting it up again in our new place. I hope the transition will be smooth and I am confident that the German Telecom will be able to install our new telephone line and the Broadband connection right in time.

I also would like to thank everyone for their patience in view of outstanding work on commissions and like to apologise for some long delays. I hope to resume my work on these as soon as my new hobby room is again fully furnished (which is, by the way, bigger than the last one, yipee).
