You place yours order and tick the box "I want an expedited service", enter the amount you wish to pay for this service and the orders get processed from the highest payment to the lowest. :) :)

I'm liking the sound of this...!  :D

especially if we have another 3 or more weeks to go.

Be great to think there were 'just' three weeks to go.

Don't know about you folks, but I'd have a wild guess, in that we won't see much 'change' until sometime in July. :(
Fingers crossed for earlier.

Cheers - Phil

Well The circuits the Government bought for the  Nightingale Hospital in London, are on a 1 year contract. Now they could cancel early and pay the full cost, but I am sure my company would have come up with an short time alternative given the situation, so perhaps they are anticipating a need for quite a while.

*sigh* Well Monday morning, no painting done this w/e, mostly cos 2 weeks in and the Pendrken still hasnt got through. Just to make Leon feel bad, I thought I'd include a picture of some bases feeling extremely lonely.

Perhaps Leon could introduce a "buy your way up the queue" policy when ordering on the website.

You place yours order and tick the box "I want an expedited service", enter the amount you wish to pay for this service and the orders get processed from the highest payment to the lowest. :) :)

Given the boredom levels it could be quite profitable, especially if we have another 3 or more weeks to go.
Obviously you did not tick the "I want an expedited delivery" box, or your offer was not enough to put you at the top of the queue


I am waiting for some customised movement trays - my second lot since lockdown

Nothing to cut/slather paint on  :( and the pink one was 50p cheaper than the green  :-

Nothing to paint - sorry I do not comprehend that statement. (I don't think many on this forum will either)

Call yourself a wargamer - you don't have a Lead/resin/plastic mountain !!!!!! :o :o :o :o

A pink mat is very understandable as the contrast helps give clear visibility.  No mountain?  Not credible.  8)

I did find some 220 plastic Infantry (FOW stuff) lurking in an odd corner, I might just start painting those and buy some metal tanks/vehicles from QRF (its only £1 dearer tham Pendraken) I just cant do these fiddly 15mm tank kits.

And some nice "dead" tanks too.

A couple of Kubelwagens full of dead Germans or a knocked out T-34 makes something different for scenery!

I've chased this up and I think it was delayed while we dried and filtered another batch of basing sands!  All done and out to you tomorrow, with the second one as well I think.
