From RayR: Haitian Revolution - Farm Workers [Overdue & Returns] (70 points)

 


Well, what a few weeks that has been, being whisked off in an ambulance for a suspected heart attack, to be then told, good news its not a heart attack, but you've pneumonia and 3 blood clots on your lung!
After 10 days recovery in hospital I'm back home on the road to recovery, thank gawd!


These 10 figures were finished a few weeks ago, but I never got the chance to take any photos, so here they are now. They are I believe Eureka figures, although I can't seem to find them on their website??


These 10 figures will be added to my Haitian Revolution collection, but could be used for any period from the 1650's up to the ACW.

I'll be claiming some bonus points for the post, I'll be visiting the Overdue & Returns room. Definitely been avoiding these figures, but very willing to come back to the period!

Overdue and Returns: Those things that you've been working on, or have been avoiding, but are willing to come back to.

So to the points...

There are 10 figures @ 5pts each = 50pts

plus 20pts for the Bonus round

Making a total of 70pts

TeemuL: Good to have you back and glad you are recovered! Heart attack or pneumonia? Well, I guess the pneumonia is the preferred answer. And let me assure you, my Thor's Day emoji selection of "Sauna whisk" was chosen before I read you have been "whisked off in an ambulance."

Very nice civilians, always a pleasure to see them in Challenge. They could be innocent bystanders, something to protect or perhaps something to scare off and loot? And usable on different eras and theathers, like you said. Solid 70 points for you!
