Royal Horse Artillery WIP

Started on an Old Glory limber set, as well as two Perry guns - one each 6 and 9 pounder. Here are the horses, limber and gun carriages with basic block painting prior to a Minwax stain.
And the pieces after the stain - along with the guns added to the carriages.The gun and limber crews are next.

    I'll be darned if I can find the Minwax water-based Tudor stain anywhere locally.

    In fact, I can't even find ANY Minwax Tudor - water or oil based.

    Your limbers are looking fantastic!

    Regards,
    Greg

    Greg:

    The only place (here in WA State) that I've found Minwax Tudor is at Ace Hardware stores. I've never found it anywhere else. Best, Dean
