This (thread derailment) is like visiting someone (in this case, d-guy) who is sick; chatting about everything except the subject matter.

... which reminds me of the time a friend gave me an elephant for my room. I said, "Thanks." He said, "Don't mention it.'

:D :D :D :D

To plagiarise Wilde and Whistler

Ithoriel: I wish I had said that.
Westmarcher: You will, Ithoriel, you will.

More thanks.
Just don't sit on my bed while discussing the merits of light rail (and leave the nurses alone!)

Got base flesh on the 56 figures. 28 mid 17th c Irish musketeers, 28 early to mid 16th c pikemen. Will now complete pikemen first. Got all the base steel on their armor.

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

Now have the 28 Flodden era pikeman painted and based up. These, at best, are wargame quality as more and more I am speed painting  - base coat, color block, highlight, wash, base.:

I was not joking about using PaulR's diary as a painting tutorial.
Here are the new Irish musketeers finished off (with a few repurposed ensigns added in).

Even though following his exact order of applying paints, washes and highlights, STILL not reproducing his excellent results.  :'(
