I keep meaning to post these but then get distracted. Some of you may already have seen them on TMP but I like to show them off as much as possible by way of thanking Leon and the gang for such great figures and customer service  :D

Very nice

Somehow they remind me of some 6mm Hail Caesar bases I saw the other day   :P

Lovely figures, and a good match between the flocking and the cloth; why on earth those 2mm of visible base edge? It spoils a lot of careful and well-judged work.

 :-bd =D> :-bd very nice work, I really like  the dynamic layout of the figures

Thicker bases encourage other people to pick troops up by the base. I paint mine green so they don't stand out quite as much as these

I was wondering what you were on about until I had a closer look at the village & spotted the graffiti  :D

You're wrong there Steve. These ones are a different size entirely. And they have 10mm scale figures on them.  :D

That is my rationale as well sadly. I am a big believer in big bases as a way to protect my wee lads. Bad and repeated past experience.
