Thanks,

I got a new camera a few weeks ago which suffers from being too good, the figures actually look better in the flesh but when photograped the images are much bigger than the figures and look rubbish, especially the German field gun, the picture is actually 6 or 7 times bigger than the model which looks pretty good, but the picture shows all the blemishes.

I know what you mean Dan, I hate taking close ups, With mine you think hey looks good until you see the photo and then notice all the bits I missed

Massai based on four 20x40 bases with 5 on individual bases. the two officers are on separate bases too. Askari getting there slowy. the question njow is how should I base them. my idea is some will be based with the bearers  who will be in singe file along the base guarded by  a couple of Askari on each base, some will be individual bases, but what about the rest, any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Somewhat ashamedly I can only offer some bigger scale painting to my list [mostly]

- 10mm terrain: lots & lots prepped & undercoated ready for painting for a well-known 10mm manufacturer 
- 25mm GW LotR: Hobbits / Uruk Hai painted - whole collection rebased 
- 28mm Napoleonic Peninsular [for skirmishing]: Spanish Clergy, Spanish horse & cart, Spanish Guerillas - painted

Nik, wish i had known you were doing LoTR. I have/had 13 moira goblins and an Arewn on Ebay that I'd have sent you.

I must post pics of the 28mm FJ I got off you - they painted up lovely

Where does the time go, eh??!

Anyway - thought it was about time to resurrect this one & see what we've all been distracted by
