Inspired by Nik's birthday parade, and taking the opportunity of the rest of the family being away for a couple of days, I have got all my painted 10mm figures on the table. And they fill the full 8'x4'. I knew I had a lot of figures, but didn't realise it was quite that many!
It's taken the whole evening to get the figures set up, so I will get some photos tomorrow evening in daylight.
Cool - looking forward to seeing this Forbes 8)
Looking forward to seeing this!
:-bd
And me !
Cheers - Phil.
Me too!
Right, managed to get some photos taken tonight - but I've struggled a bit to get the full set of models in a decent photo - its hard to get far enough away to get everything in a single shot.
Anyway these are the better overview shots:

Thanks Phil
Anyone want to play spot the figure?
Blimey, that is a collection of goodness :).
Here's a go at videoing the figures - its a bit blurry, does it help show what's there?

Cheers - Phil.
Superb! Really impressive! 8)
God I hate you.......... :D
Well that's cracking, excellent layout there! I'll have to get Dave to have a look at this when we're in work tomorrow.
:-bd 8)
Cheers chaps, I'll get some of the close up photos posted tomorrow.
Phil, there's no goat, or other farm yard animals for that matter.
There is a fair mix of manufacturers, but a good proportion are Pendraken

That's because many units stand back in awe of eachother!
Great display of boys' toys + a sunny garden to put up a gaming table = bliss.
Cheers,
Aart
Very impressive. 8) What are the close-order troops at the garden end of the table?
Fantastic - thanks for doing all the work to share this - must have taken for ever!
Thats pretty darn impressive! This is the best I can manage at this point;

They are GW Warmaster high elves
Aart - it is inside in the conservatory, even in summer in the UK outdoor wargaming will result in getting wet.
Robert - it took an evening to set everything up, and not too long to take photos etc. I have it to put away tonight. Painting and purchasing has taken a good 8 years or so. I got back into painting and gaming around 2004, and the figure count has grown steadily, nearly all in 10mm.
Well - Nik, Fred and Bryan have set a mark - who is going to parade next and inspire us newbies to 10mm?

Superb!
Nicely done Ray 8)
Now I'm faced with the task of putting the little buggers away again. :'(
Serves you right for showing off Ray !! ;) ;D ;D ;D
Thanks 'oodles' for displaying them.....Wonderful !!
Cheers - Phil.
Good stuff Ray - plenty of space for growth available!
Putting it all away is a right pain - but does a allow for a bit of resorting and organising.
