Four Warband Evil Men stands underway, including proper mounted knights (3 1/2 actually, the half stand is Renage Elves)' plus 16 x 15mm cavalry for that ongoing commission, and because I was on a horsy vibe, 3 stands of Warband Centaurs!

Both ancient Chinese armies are painted. I'll see if my better half feels like road-testing them this evening with me.
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

Batch done, varnish and basing of my figures to do, then onto the next heap of 10mm arquibusiers...

Early Korean War U.S troops finished off.
First small batch of 'Napoleonic' censored almost finished. (I'm probably not supposed to say exactly what they are.)

Then there are all the 30mm figures I've been doing as well.

Boy...was my head spinning yesterday. I was doing four different projects for folk.

I've said it before, but getting 'headgear' right is one of the most difficult jobs to do. The tiniest little mis-tweak on something like a US helmet and it looks more like a Russian or Nazi helm.
Napoleonic's are just as bad for different reasons.....Getting the same shape right, on a number of different bods can be a swine.....And then there's the tiny, tiny detail to do.

All hail the Optivisor.  ;)

Duke Speedy of Leighton

42 arquibusiers and 12 long swords Renaissance commission (all 10mm) done. Eeek, slashes!  :-B @-) =O ;D 8)

Can you at least tell us if the horses for the Nappies are charging or standing?

Spanish infantry and irregulars is my bet, based purely upon what I would like to see :D

Techno

I dunno...... X_X

I've got around 20 small groups of conversions to do....I'm being mentored......From a quick scan of all the images I've been sent...One does appear to have helmets.
No more questions. ;)
I'll be working my way through them in the order I'm asked to:P

Wait a minute! Aren't nappies what we (over here) call diapers? In which case charging or standing horses would mean.... :o :-&
