I knew I shouldn't have had a rummage, as I've just turned up a box of 200 AWI figures all based, undercoated and ready for the paintbrush... what with the Newline Celts arriving from my eBay foray, I'm going to be a busy boy.

I’ve got a new mini-drill arriving tomorrow - major clean-up is back in town. :mrgreen:
Also, speaking of practices Sharp, Dawns and Departures map set from TFL to explore.

Oh, and a tin of Army Painter Strong Dip, some ferrous paper, a mat case, MP Earth Brown and a roll of magnetic tape. Funny how you run out of everything at once isn’t it.
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

Yeah, I’ve got some army painter mid brown on order. I like it for a flesh wash.

I just bought another Citadel Spacefarer on eBay. I can't stop doing that.

Not necessary, I already have more than enough painted AWI for SP2. These are extra, and were purchased (again) during one of my megalomaniac periods, when I was buying up boxes of Perry plastics at bargain prices, any AWI 28mm on eBay and so on, plus the odd purchase from Dave Thomas at shows and so on. I haven't done a full audit, because I keep turning up units in odd places, but I have enough figures, (some even painted), for a pretty decent sized engagement.

I feel like I should actually push this one through to 'completion' but it would involve actually buying some more figures, as I don't currently have any American cavalry.

Yep, I picked that up (the SP Dawns and Departures Map Tiles) as well. I am kind of struggling with how to use it in powerpoint as the instructions are sketchy at best. There's a vague reference to creating boxes, but whether this is a table .. in which case it won't fit on a page and so on.

And while it works for Western Europe, (excluding the Tyrol, Scotland, Switzerland and Ireland) it needs some fiddling for other theatres of operation.
