Had a great [& productive] day today - all the girls out competing [showjumping] so Isaac & I had the run of the garden; he was happy with tents, tunnels & trampolines, which meant that I was uninterrupted for sufficient time to texture the bases of this lot:





So that's the Arabs & Crusaders at the bottom [gotta love them siege towers  8)], and then [left to right]:

Indo-China Viet Minh, Indo-China French Paras, WW2 Japanese, WW2 USMC.

They're all undercoated now as well...told you I'm more motivated in the summer  <)

That's shocking Nik!!!!!!!!

That garden table and decking need some serious TLC :D

First Juniors coaching today. 100+ tearaways itching to play the only *beautiful* game, I even pinged my first ever *technically correct* front foot drive back past 20 gobsmacked teenagers... Even my own boy was impressed ;D

I even managed to Somerset Pink the extension AFTER training. Now relaxing with the Masters and a bottle of Red. Just hoe Rory can hold his nerve :)
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Looking good Nik.  Im guessing the Arabs and Crusaders are for Warmaster Ancients?

Sooo how long will it take Nik to paint all of the minis shown in the above pixs?   :-\

We got a ladder goin on his speed painting time  :D

Time and Date stamped, we will see how Nik does now that he has show us his hand   :d

nikharwood

Yep - they're for Warmaster Medieval  8)

As for painting this lot - this is only part of the leadpile - I've also got Jacobites & Brits, Sudanese & Brits and Russians & Germans [Stalingrad] that need doing...although first up is likely to be the USMC as they're going to be putting in an appearance at Legionary [Exeter] in less than a month  ;D
