Great looking horses, no doubt, French Chasseurs look superb with these gorgeous green shades....

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Thanks Phil

[@rangerminiaturesandgaming3647]

I always loved French Chasseurs, so colorful. Reminds me of the movie the Duelist

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Many thanks 🙏🙏

[@MiniWarMutt]

Awesome job with the horses!👍👍

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Thanks mate

Fantastic work! I've never had a problem with Army Painter's Primers, though the problem you describe I've had with AK Interactive's Primer. Sprayed on as if it was satin finish and too smooth. Otherwise, everything looks great (even the riders), though I don't fault you for wanting to start over. Sometimes you just have to if you're not happy with the results. I've found myself going 50/50 on contrast vs normal. There are some colors that just don't lay down right, so I'll do certain bits in Contrast and all others with normal. Thanks for another great watch! AND, nice Spitfire in the background there.

Great looking figures, coming along nicely. You are doing alot of cool stuff. Nothing wrong with LEGO.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Many thanks mate

I really recommend colour forge. They are great spray primers.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Many thanks I'll buy some colour forge soon

[@liberator2408]

Coming along nicely mate, i tend to use a light grey primer which also works well with contrast paints 👍

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers mate

Looking good Justin, I use Army painter primer, plate metal, works great for car parts, but it has some solvents in it, might be the issue, Cheers mate

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers Tom

[@joramamodellbau3987]

Despite the problems with the primer, the result is absolutely fine, Justin. Best wishes, Joachim

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Thank you Joachim

Nice update Justin with this Chasseurs à cheval .

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers my friend I hope you're well

[@Rusty_Gold85]

Ive given up on Army Painter. Too splatty and ruined some epics I had . I now love Vallejo primer with the 2 nozzles. One nozzle is super fine spray and is beyond brilliant . I also rate Rustoleum Black really well too. get a sheet of paper behind horse to make lense to stop hunting and focus the background too. Im in Australia and spray outside so i get warm air that dries it out quick

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers mate

[@BrushQuill]

The horses are looking good. I tend to put a wash over my "normal" painted horses to tie them in with the contrast paints. Shame about the white primer :( have you tried contacting AP?

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers mate I don't think I'll bother contacting them

[@seamybmw]

Look good Justin I think some of those paint brands have solvents in them that might be the issue 👍

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers seamy that could be the issue

[@OW...]

Nice one today. Good chat at the end. As an historian myself, well, before i retired. But i suppsoe being an historian its a thing you can do/be whether retired or not.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Thanks mate 👍👍

[@MikeJones-qi5ki]

Great painting job, on both horse's and riders. I've heard army painter undercoat wasn't that good, but we listen and learn. Just one small point and please don't take it the wrong way, but the , i think you mentioned the drummer's horse, well the model horse appears to have a docked / cropped tail, in British cavalry fashion. Not being a pain, just wondering why . I know, I know, it's only wargaming and our hobby. Apologies if I've offended you.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers mate and not a problem just wanted to make use of all the riders

[@gavinbooth]

Whatever the primer issues they look good marra . Regards Gav.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers Gav

[@maryhinge6334]

Nice update Justin. 👍

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Many thanks Jim

[@jvcpaints]

Nothing worse than primer not cooperating with your painting. The horses came out really well.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers james

[@goforitpainting]

Looks cool.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers mate

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

Justin your grandson is going to take it from you for sure and you are absolutely right if you forget your history! It will be a sad world and history will repeat itself if you don't learn from it ❤

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Thanks so much brother

[@62seano]

Nice update Justin, sorry to see your'e having primer issues, i use Vallejo brush on surface primer, always had good results with it mate, horses look excellent, i watched the said video, and unsubscribed from that channel, fed up with the soy tears of these utter fools, i don't play ww2, but if i did i'd happily play any race. We learn from history. Ill check out your shout out and subscribe

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers Sean

[@granapriego]

Nice work mate. I keep hearing about this fool. Having a degree in history I hate all this softening and distortion of history. As well as the ignorance of it. I do not know the video but i am guessing he is one of those high subscriber gets loads of free stuff GW types? Who did for click bait knowing reaction gets hims views and more cash.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Cheers Anthony he has certainly rattle our chains

[@granapriego]

@@basicminiaturepainting I tried to hunt the video down. I think i found it. Exactly the types i assumed. So if historical wargamers are nazis for playing germans what are people that play chaos in 40k …demon worshipers? Pathetic.
