Just gussied up a bunch of resin ruins.
They’ve acccumulted over the years in various batches, in variegated paint jobs.
I’ve drybrushed some uniformity on to them so they all match up and I can now put together a nice big layout.

Using it in a battle is going to look like a trip to Lindisfarne priory got completely out of hand.

Might get a portacabin and paint it up as a visitor centre & gift shop.

Looting a gift shop would be a bit frustrating.

I bet it would get your National Heritage membership cancelled, too.

Then - next time you wanted to fight a battle on a historic ruin - all your guys would have to pay full price to get in.

Foundry 3rd Continental Dragoons for my AWI expansion. Slow going as my wife Sue was rushed in to hospital on Thursday with acute appendicitis. Doing well after the op last night. Off to visit now, so painting a low priority for a while.

Surgeons - generally unbearable but they don’t half come in handy now and again. All the best to Mrs P.

True enough, it isn't the sort of job you want done by an enthusiastic amateur is it? Hope she makes a good recovery.

Adult appendectomies are always uncomfortable, but in a few weeks she will almost have forgotten it.

Just finished a load of Napoleonic Horses

I used a speed painting technique that I've tried to illustrate with photos on the blog

I hope it makes sense!

Now I've got to finish the riders! :hair:

Basing up a bunch of trees. They were part of a venerable job lot and I’ve never used them because they’re bright spring blossom colours, and trees should be green, shouldn’t they?
This weekend I thought: get over yourself Landings, you massive tree racist. They’re not half bad.
