Now I admit that I am a slow painter. Not for me the drugery of starting att one end of an army and slaving away for hours on same old same old, no I paint what I like when I like. I paint for relaxation from work and as a brain break from writing Currently I'm on a bit of a shiny kick as a rest from India. So its old lead dudes time once again. The models below all bought second hand mostly off ebay and all needing varying amounts of TLC.
One for the shiny AWI collection. An old Willie- ie Suren 30mm Conneticut Light Horse. The horse was tailess so a tail from a broken old Gee-gee was pinned in place. |
British artillery again the AWI collection. Figurese 30mm Stadden. Part of a large job lot I bought at auction. The gun is a modernn piece, a 6 pdr from t Sash and Saber FIW range. |
Four old Willies in a line! Part of another ebay purchase. These arrived already primed along wth a bundle of other Napoleonics . These are the fist on a KGL unit. |
...And Finally. A Colonel for the Gordon Highlanders, A Hinchliffe Foremost model, This one bought new. |
Lovely figures, the Suren Cavalry figure is an absolute cracker, not seen that figure before and it is a wee beauty.
ReplyDeleteHe came in a job lot from ebay- mostly assorted Stadden Napoleonics I added the carbine from the spares box, I had never seen him before bit I think the identification is correct.
DeleteWhat's not to like about "Four old Willies in a line"! And they're KGL Willies at that; your Shinyloo is going to be spectacular.
