Just been unbasing (more!) some 30mm 19thC (to be rebased for AGW) and I daftly snapped one chap off at the ankles. Used superglue and held the bits together. Didn't glue the figure but did glue my left hand fingers together. Dropped the two bits and ran off to a sink. Lots of hot water and soap used & fingers sorted. Went back to it & used superglue gel, much safer & stickier. Wife came in and called me a 'numpty' when I told her my tale of woe.

So I've locked her in a cupboard.

They're French, I expect they taste of garlic and Disque Bleu.

On my work bench are a stray 20+ Victrix British Napoleonics I discovered while I was reorganising plastics into bits off sprues I wanted to keep and bits that were just taking up space. I also wanted to check how many poke and shot plastics I had.

And I've been thinking about airbrushing redcoats. Undercoat black, the successive airbrushing with tamiya hull red, Vallejo flat red and then brush highlights with a vermilion and orange mix.

Yeah, I toyed with the idea of making it suitable for more periods, but then it wouldn’t fit in with the Arthurian theme as it’s quite ‘specific’. It is a lovely model and I may get another for use across a broader range of periods. We’ll see how this one turns out first.

No, the roof tiles are different and I want to do a portion of the roof thatch (where they are unable to replace original tiles). It may also have some wooden struts up the outside.

The combination of those would make it ok for all dark age bashes, but not too much past that.
