Another option is to add the few figures you'd need for AWI skirmish while continuing with AWI as it stands and do the SYW as well  :d

This project is going to slow a bit now, first day back at work :(

Compromise - do SYW big battles.

With my return to work, domestic and gardening duties and hot weather this project has stalled a little :(

Hopefully I can make some progress tomorrow :!!

Oh........Rub it in, why don't you ? :'(
(Just above freezing here...and it's supposed to be getting a lot colder for the next few days. (I suppose we ARE in the 'middle' of Winter.)

Some progress today :)
I've done some more of the turnbacks and facings, still about a third to do but as from various regiments several different colours left to do

I had to spend two hours of painting time weeding the garden before it got too hot (Sorry Techno) and now its too hot for gardening or painting #:-S
