Yeah, well I'm not leaving the oven on for 24 hours, not at today's prices.

Life getting in the way of things has led to little painting mojo of late. At least I have been busy planning some forces for mid-18thC India, which has been fun. Plenty of units to paint between now and October.

Steve J

Lots of basing done tonight for the 18thC Indian forces.

More basing work done today, adding fine surface filler to blend the figures bases to the base. My order for the balance of the army is on its way, so I imagine lots of basing work to follow.

Duke Speedy of Leighton

French done apart from woodwork on rifles
Transylvanians riders bese coated and inked.
28mm trio base coated and inked. Lot of research still to do on these.
Missing arm on older big stompy robot replaced.

Much work on the Transylvanians.

Also after a long conversation about what armies we will use at Campaign in May, I have assembled two units for my army that has been put off for a while.
While = at least two years!

My order for some 18thC Indian troops arrived today, so now onto sorting them into units etc, prior to basing.
