More shinyness




Just a quickie as the Bishop said to the actress! Here are a couple of pics of my slowly (very slowly ) growing collection of 40mm"Glorious Victorians"
Now normally I use matt varnish but these lads just have to be shiny. The 3 pics are 2 in Home service Dress and 1 in foreign Service white helmet. Painted in a more toy style than is my normal wont. I do like the look. The various chaps who persueded me across to the shiny side have a point.

  1. I say sir they do look as smart a turned out collection of troops as one is likely to find, the chaps in busby's in particular remind me of a collection of airfix soft plastics I had as a sprat. Hmm, I think there was also a guards marching band in busby's as well. They held many a parade on my bedroom floor.

    The shiney in this instance is just the thing, just the thing indeed.
