HussarBob Miniatures Gallery

 At last!  New pics but of OLD figures!  All these figures were painted before I discovered the Optivisor.  I can clearly see how much I have improved over the years and it has been fun looking at these older pieces, I felt quite nostalgic!

Also some inane ramblings in Blog regarding Optivisors, paints and brushes.  I don't know why this doesn't show up in the Recent Blog Entries bit ! 

First, a Foundry figure from the Napoleon and Staff pack.  He is the officier d'ordanance figure but I painted him up as Bessieres.  An early attempt at NMM. Painted about 7 years ago.

Next a Redoubt Enterprises ACW zouave....can't remember which regiment! Redoubt figures are really let down by the poor quality of the faces.  But they are certainly very good gaming figures. Again painted about 7 years ago.

Now a GW Bretonian sorceress, my early efforts at some serious blending and "grown up" painting.  I was very pleased with how she turned out at the time.  What the pic doesn't show is the blade of the sword is emerald green!!  Painted about 10 years ago

And finally there are a couple of French Foreign Legion figures in the Other Historical gallery.  Now I believe they are Foundry figures but I have never seen them advertised on their site and never seen them before or since I picked them up at a show!  If anyone out there can identify them for me, it would be appreciated. Painted about 7 years ago also.

 Thank you

Born 27.10.1927, died 11.1.2009

Remembering my Dad, a fellow painter, who died on the 11th January 2009 after a long illness.  He has finally found peace and will live forever in the hearts of his family.

I dedicate this site to his memory

Welcome to my gallery.

This small website is purely a means for me to showcase some of my work.  I hope you will browse at your leisure and find something to interest you.  Please feel free to make comments or contact me with any questions you may like to ask.  The site is in its infancy and changes will occur when everyday life gives me a few moments to attend to the site.

I paint predominately 28mm historical figures, with the occasional Sci-Fi/Fantasy piece. You will find one solitary 15mm figure in the Napoleonic gallery but I do intend to do more of this smaller scale at some point to give him some company!

Updates and additions will  be on an irregular basis, but I do hope you will re-visit occasionally to see any new images that I may have posted. 

Please be aware, I am not a professional painter in any shape or form!  I paint for my own pleasure and relaxation only.  I do not accept commissions.
