'A Tale of Four Gamers'

[Womble67]

Did a bit of work on some AWI lights. It's the last unit to complete the British army. Well for now

Take care

Well the road and stream problem has been solved for me by Michael at Supreme Littleness. He is going to supply me with very narrow MDF sections on which I can make roads and streams.

[Subedai]

Result. He's very accommodating...so I've heard.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Too cold (and a little bit snowy) to varnish today, might as well start the next units, bows or bills? Choices... choices...

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

In the 48 minutes I had while the Amazing Mrs Denham took Rach to her gym lesson I base coated (six colours) inked (3 colours) 60 bills. I also added a cloak to a samurai general. And ate a banana! 🍌

Not bad.

[Leman]

Bills, Will, bills; the bow had pretty much had its day by 1513.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

There will be 240+ bills and 120 bows in the first incarnation of this force...

[Leman]

For 1513 I reckon that sounds about right. Next on the list some Landsknechts to take the fight to the French - come on you Spurs!

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Just waiting for the order to arrive, 6 mdf cavalry bases needed and then I'll have a full Burgundian cavalry unit, oh, and 96 Landschernecks pike too!
Their first outing will be a competition with a minimum of 16 bases of cavalry, not including light horse, that's basically everything Henry had, all over priced and not brilliant kit!
Looks like my army will be more continental to start with, and Flodden later!
Tempted to do a sunken Mary Rose (just the mast heads) as a naval unit!

[FierceKitty]

Landschernecks?? 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

You say Landschernecks I say landschernecks... Damned auto spell

[Leman]

I don't think the Mary Rose wen belly up util the 1540s, but then again, a mast is a mast.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Latest unit done.

Ordinary bills.

[fred.]

I like the look of that unit - 8 bases is a big unit, what rules are these for?

Did you like Lorraine Kelly's lessons from life? A nice bit of light reading while painting 

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Fogr, mostly will be fielded as a 6, but 8s are a nasty hit.

The in-laws read the daily heil, we use it to line the cat litter tray and for painting, it's incredibly absorbant, and already full of...

A good bit of recycling then!

What on earth is that woman not wearing?

What on earth is that woman not wearing?

Clothes.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

New unit of Tudor archers started last night. Base coated, inked.

Still waiting for a good enough day to varnish the last six units!!

[Leman]

I still don't get this 'waiting for the weather' to varnish. I just put my brush in the varnish and get on with it. It also means my painting desk has room for the new stuff.
