IMMUNE !!!!! =O =O =O =O =O      RESOLVE !!!!!   =O =O =O =O =O =O  you might be able to spell the words, but you cannot use either in any sentence when referring to Frederick Simeon Nobbs and Pendraken products.

I will as soon as I have some. At the moment I'm still a martyr to the lead piles: one 6mm Pontic army to finish and two massive 2mm 30 Years War armies (Spanish and 'Statish') to start on... Painting the latter feels a bit like painting licorice all-sorts (Engelse drop). Bit of a failed experiment maybe.  ???

They can get done fairly fast, i know ididn't take that long:

just don't overdo it, most of the stuff won't be noticable anyway!

Cavillarius

This whole dry brushing lark doesn't satisfy me one bit, but you're right: I could probably do all of that 2mm stuff in two nights. Oh well, once more onto the breach, I guess...

It's playing with them afterwards that satisfies me  :D

Technically North Americans but fair point.

Today we are all Europeans Humans. Even the fantasy wargamers.  ;)

I've met at least one man from Buenos Aires who made a point of calling himself an American.

With all the 'Dremmeling' I'm doing, to prepare the little TB men and horses for Leon.....And another chap that Leon's put me in contact with (Different scale)....I've got SO much white metal 'dust' on the cutting mat......I reckon Nobby would accept that I've made a Biblical plague sized swarm of locusts !
