Squinty eyes

Yes, it's got to that stage, painting the lace on the hats. I just struggle to focus on the black surface no matter how much light I add to the subject and magnification doesn't seem to help either.

However there has been a lot of progress over the last two weeks as can be seen from my work in progress.

Hopefully the infantry will be finished by the weekend and then the cavalry, etc. during next week.

  2. You might like one of these. I use one on occasion, they are light and do help with some things. Generally they are between $12 and $15. I got mine at a hobby store.
