From PhilH: Springing Up, then Pausing for Refreshments at Hawkins’ Hill (36 Points)

And to wrap up my speedy Challenge Island tour, I dash up Hawkins’ Hill, pausing only briefly for a refreshing jug of local wine. It’s a well-trodden path to Snowlord’s Peak.

Hawkins’ Hill demands a model from Challenge VII or earlier. Crikey do I have a lot of models that would fit the bill. But no time, no time, I needed something done fast to reach the Peak on time. So just one mini.

Well ladies and gentlemen, I believe this model has been bought, prepped, primed and based since circa AHPC 2. Or maybe even predate it entirely. Bought as part of an old Peninsular war project, that I was working on when I first started blogging in  2011. And I think the last. I I from the pack to paint. I may be slow, but in time, I’ll get there.

The shawl was too tempting not to add a pattern to. 

She’s from the Perry Miniatures Carlist War range, a useful set of civilians. Probably stretch to a country bumpkin in the SCW. I don’t know why she’s not wearing any shoes, must be uncomfortable.

And with that, eight Island locations marked off, to Snowlord’s Peak and whatever devilish task our Snowlord sets me.

And he's home! That's a very nice young lady you've painted for your own island location. I do hope there's more wine where that came from - I may need some myself if the pic-eating bug carries on much longer!

I'm awarding an extra point for the freehand design on the shawl.

ps - good luck at Snowlord's Peak - you're cutting it rather fine!
