Assembled a whole load of spare Later Imperial Roman onto 10mm deep bases to bulk four units up to 40mm deep for MeG so I can match my friend's units, before I ran out of archers (units are all 'integral archers' so I'm scattering some throughout the extra rank, useful vs Cavalry). They won't be painted by Thursday, but it will be fine!

Going to put together a Victoria figure this affo just to see how long it takes and what my finished figure will look like.

Nowt done of late as I've been enjoying the lovely weather, gardening and spending some quality family time. The aim tonight is to return to some Lion Rampant basing...

Bastard corrector thingy on this computer. It was a VICTORIX figure. Anyway, went together very straightforwardly using Revell plastic cement with the long metal nozzle.

Made a start on converting some of the EMM2 knights, by removing their lances so that they can be repositioned to add more variety to the pose. I may do a few head swaps as well :-\

Nosher

More Sharp Practice 2 rebasing. This time a shed load of 15mm Poles, Saxons and Russian Napoleonics (until I ran out of pennies.... :()

Flocked some more sabots but still need more and have also run out of 2p pieces on which to base Leaders.

Now sat working out how many more bases, sabots I need and looking at my force compositions to see whats missing and needs ordering so I can expand my AWI to include FIW figures as well as sourcing 15mm baggage and civilians. Long time since Ive gamed in 15mm so I'm not that up to date on whats out there :-\
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Continuing with the final code of the Dark Elves.

Swore lots & lots when the Dremel suddenly decided it was going to speed up at its lowest speed.  >:( >:( >:( >:(

Ordered a cheap bit of kit from Amazon that should help slow it down. (I'll let you know if the theory works !)
Swine with that, was that it was an 'add on' item only available if you ordered other stuff worth more than £20.....Couple more CDs for Phil, then. :D...Hey Ho !

Duke Speedy of Leighton

Just standards, finishing off, sorting mistakes and basing to do now on these conquistadors!

A 'plug in' dimmer switch, Forbes.

Works a treat.
Its 'maximum wattage' is over twice the wattage of the Dremel......So I hopefully won't burn the house down.  :D
