I bet Mart's will look nicer !  :)

(Oooh...Mart...did you get the note about my change of email addy ?........And that applies to anyone else that had my old freeserve addy, on the forum.
I know some have got through....But I know at least one person I sent to, regarding this, who didn't get the original email.....So I'm wondering if there are any other folk who didn't get the notification.

PM me if you've been missed !

Cheers - Phil

They just have good camo skills, Will :D

Looks like they're good from what you can make out - I suggest a whisky, steady the hand ;)

Have you tried the self-timer function?  Even with a tripod you can get camera shake when you press the button.

Have you ever eaten the flying rats - they are not bad, Just take the breast meat off.  Even if you don't like it I am sure the dogs would.

I am refusing to look at these very nicely painted models, as I don't want to be tempted.

I have not looked at the lovely Chieftan on the  Timecast website either, again because I did not want to be tempted :-[

After I've shot them, the 'puppies' try and grab the damn things before I throw them into one of the fields....(The puppies get ever so excited when 'Dad' gets the shooty stick out. )

Also vindicates my long running debate with Leon that a few 1970s era  Cold War Soviet infantry would (with existing Falklands figures and existing armour)  create an instant coffee Early Cold War range generating a quick return income way beyond the cost of the sculpts.

Timecast AFVs are cool.  Their figures are chunky with scale creep and the weapons either over exaggerated (the GPMG) or too small (the 120mm mortar).

But then I am a fan of the Techno touch.   :)

Dude, great looking fight and minis, very cool! I'm of two minds on your performance: on the one hand, your armor was decimated straight out the box, and yet you still hung on and made him pay quite dearly.  On the other hand, ya still got your ass whooped! ;)

In all seriousness, that was a lot of fun, you need to do more of that!  Thanks for posting, and I should give Sabre Squadron a look sometime.

V/R,
Jack
