My 1/72 collections

Posted by matgc on 19 May 2016, 20:14

Hi, guys,

I'm new here, but have been collecting 1/72 historicals for about 2 years now. I collect napoleonics and imperial romans/gauls, and plan to start some crusaders and 100-year war armies in the future, as well.

I regularly post my painted units on my blog, you can have a look here:

Here are a few pics of my models:

Really nice stuff there matgc. Love the bold use of color. I favor the flesh and faces your style brings out.

Great to see you posting here in addition to TMP. Your talents deserve wider recognition. I think you'll find a more international and supportive crowd on this forum as well. (one reason I don't post pictures on TMP)

Hello and welcome!
What impress me always is the colorefull uniform of the Napolonic wartime. Not only the uniform also the headgeare. There is so much work as seen in your figures. I think it is at least the same work as a full ss camo of WW II.
But in this timeline you can coose to more simple uniform in a Dio with historical corecctness. But for the Austerlitz, Wartaloo etc. time also the smal support troops need a lot of work with her civil like clothes too.
And all the horses with figures. A lot of nice work that you present us. :thumbup:

fabulous looking figures, lovely painting and really dynamic pictures.

I've always really liked that set of Horse Grenadiers, after seeing yours I like them even more.
