So I think that's 5 pts plus 20 points for the topic. total score = 25pts So the total should be 44+25+25 =94 if my math's is correct?
Sylvain: A very interesting post. I like your shopping stories as well as your pictures showing how you work on your bases. Very informative. And your miniatures are fabulous as well. I am (not) sorry to hear that you were charmed by the chant of the bonus themes. It brought us some wonderfully painted miniatures. Where will you take us next week?
Great work on that gun and crew, love those mid century shakos. And great scores on the vintage figures. It's great to see a Matilda who isn't packing a 2 pounder or run Venezuela.
ReplyDeletethanks Peter, whats crazy is that they swopped these stunning items (which should add at least 2 points to any morale throw in a sensible set of wargame rules) in 1849 for some blue kepis and the red coats for dark blue - which of course is a lot easier to source for the gamer. Hmmm Empress Matilda armed with a 2 pounder on the other hand - sounds like a steam punk item.....
DeleteSome wonderful minis here love the gun and crew.
ReplyDeletethanks Galpy I enjoyed painting them especially as they look much better with paint on - not always the case with some figures - Irregular Miniatures of YORKSHIRE in England are sometimes a bit quirky sculpts but a godsend for the vast ranges they offer.
DeleteLovely work. I especially like your cyclops find.
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt everything fell into place - I joined AHPC14 -discovered the library then my imagination ran riot at this toyshop event when I had only gone to "just maybe" buy the especially right aircraft kit - i.e. cheap, which of course is a needle in a haystack when they usually charge 5 quid for the packaging alone! (I don't do aircraft by the way! but thats another story)
DeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeleteNice finds and excellent Matilda!
ReplyDeletethanks - its great when you discover something unexpected at a show while painting a freebie has been a bonus - its the first one I have ever done to completion.
ReplyDeleteGreat mix of stuff here, that Cyclops really reminds me of when I was young in the hobby (I wish I'd retained my run of the first 20 or so copies of White Dwarf!)
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a mix of figures Lorenzo!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a bargain find. Some lovely painting here. Who doesn't love tufts?
