Thanks for your thoughts. Tomorrow I leave for a trip to Holland,also go to Legoland in Denmark. I resume after the experiments.

continuous with the tests. J.L. Hornblower, wanted to conquer Venice with all those troops??

As always, a great job, very nice.

Captain Becker!!! This is -("MY")- Grande Armee :pir-sweet:

First big mistake. In this photograph, we see that the color gold is damped by decal. The solution is to apply one coat of clear gloss over the gold, before applying the decal. In this way, the gold remains alive and shining. Already experienced, but I have no picture.

I started experiments,the work becomes too long and laborious, too many masks to do. I assembled all the evidence, This is an idea of what was to be. For now abdicated, I enjoyed very much the realization,but for now I'll stop here. The next........

New. Dolman with rope. Bandolier.

Reins chest, horse. Reins tail, horse.

it is not easy to reduce the details of the hussars Napoleonic,were the maximum of the elegance of the time, before going forward with the army I want to finish this, just to see the final result and criticism. I listen to the criticism, if you notice i often change the decals. Go ahead as you want

So, better to go!! :pir-sweet:

Reins Hussar Officer on horseback.

Good criticism, I have to paint the leopard skin on the piece (too complicated a decal)I put in the picture as the background of the saddle, the first thing that I found on internet (it is also bad as skin, but I have not found anything else)

Back from a trip to germany (Legoland), I went to look around on the forums, and saw the wonders of Michaelozzie, and.............. For now I limit myself to a military parade, if I make it.

look at "THIS" in the picture 4, the brass parts are sewing needles, machined with a lathe (man is 5.4 cm). This is my insanity New decals. Sabretache 7° Hussar Sabretache Hunter of the guard Flamme (flame bearskin colpack) Officer sheath Hussar first hussar, I would like to end. Captain 7° Regiment

I use modelling paste Andrea miniatures, milliput, white metal, any what can be useful.(TUTORIAL)

OK Woody! However, not having hurry. More Decals.

You need a little 'equipment, is not so simple. Shabraque Officer hunter on horseback.

Apart from all the books I have on the Napoleonic period (large library)for obvious reasons I can not show. I suggest THIS, THIS, THIS, and THIS In the future I photograph all the steps, I have a friend that has the printer laser( very good ) and a plotter a cutter (to make masks for paint) I can now have more print quality, therefore I have to try new designs.

Pelisse Captain of the Imperial Guard.

Thanks to all These should be fine.

A test print, natural size, you can see the detail even if the paper is rough. Over the decals is much better.

in fact the last two figures are too detailed, I have to change for printing. I use for printing figures 17 cm width x 500 pixel, these due to space reduce them on the forum to 3 cm width x 100 pixel, print from this figure you lose the quality. Are waiting for a response by a company production for decals, on the quality that you can get of print (I hope that their colors have good coverage), with my printer already get good results (only black and white).

for the Emperor that and more, Vive l'Empereur!!

I use "Clear Inkjet Water Slide Decal Paper" mold only black lines, I do not color, I give it the color with the airbrush on all pieces, with a masking. the problem of decals made with the printer, is.... (We would recommend that if you do use a colored background (plate, mug) that print in black ink. It is safe to use the color ink but keep in mind that the ink is translucent. So for example; if you print a blue star on a red mug the blue star will not be as vibrant, it will now have a purple hue.) when you have fine lines, masking is a problem.
