Hello Ralf
Nice to see something from you again. You took your time with it. I've never heard of Nordengun. In
which era did it appear. I guess America at the turn of the century.
Let me get my questions out of the way. It turned out very nice, I also like the figures very much. Colourful uniforms but not obtrusive. very nice.

PS Let me know when you have time.

Great work on this little model 'first generation' machine gun. I like the way you seem to have used washes (and inks?) on both the gun and the uniforms, to give a very distinctive and good-looking result.

[Rich W]

Very nice job on these!

[Kekso]

It seems like nicely painted figures. Pity that photos aren't better to do them justice.

hello
yes around 1870 actually for the navy hence the uniforms,
but was also used on land with sailors

Beautiful painting as always, I've always wondered, what is your approach? Do you basecoat, then use a wash to achieve your look?

[Peter]

Better painted as I did mine! Great work Raf!

[tullo]

hello
always prime in white and then paint thinly or colour depending on the figure
greetings

thanks to all

the gun can also be seen in the old film katoum with charles heston on the ship during the breakthrough

Very nice set of well painted figures.
I know you didn't, but your figures look as if you used "contrast paint" or similar.
By thinning your paint that much, you probably get more or less the same effect.
Anyway, I like the way they look.
thanks for sharing.
