Like many other wargamers I'm nearly buried up to my neck in unpainted lead and never seem to be able to complete a project as I am constantly flipping from one project to another.

So I decided to hire a professional painter, to complete my ACW armies.  The service I settled on was Turbil Miniatures which is run by a husband and wife team and they gave me an estimated turnaround time of 3 months.  They also said they would give me regular progress updates.

So my first job is to clean up the miniature's and then post them to Turbil Miniatures so they can begin painting. As soon as I receive a progress report I will update this post.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

As I'm starting my own ACW project I'll be following this Womble; might have to steal borrow some ideas too. ;)
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Okay as promised, I received an e-mail from Turbil Miniatures last night to inform me that they had started on my figures.  I must admit I'm a little bit excited about this and can't wait to see the results.

Hi All
       I received an e-mail from Turbil Miniatures today to inform me that my Union figures should be with me by the end of the week.  To be honest I feel like a small boy again waiting for Santa to come to say I'm excited is an understatement.
