I’m currently fixed on 25mm Staddens.
Blimey! Where are you getting them from? I have some Stadden Napoleonic 25s....gorgeous, but very slim figures. I'd definitely go with 18mm as a max.

Also Surens Willy figures.
Yes. Spencer Smiths also carry them but obviously you’d wait 34 years for them to arrive. I’d love to do a featherstonesque project in awi with them to.
All for the future :geek:

I may just stuff it off and go to Foundry instead.

You can plan these sort of things. Most of us don't have enough future left to fit it all in...

I'll not be starting anything new after I reach 50. That way i'll have a chance of not leaving a huge mountain of unpainted lead for the bin men to shift!

When you reach a certain age you stop planning anything new. Instead you start planning to finish some of things you have started.

Of course you have to buy a few extra bit and pieces to finish of things.

My classic Napoleonics count as something that I am finishing as some of the figures I have had for nearly 50 years.

For some of us it's heading towards us like a big doom-laden cloud of, er, doom.
