He’s just ‘unleashing his potential’ :o

I’ve started looking at painting my 40mm French Voltigeurs over Christmas, got the box out, started looking at uniform details, put 3 of the undercoated figures on the table. That’s now the 4th period I’ve contemplated attacking over Christmas - butterflies have a better focus

40mm Napoleonics? Wtf ? Where did they spring from ?

[FreddBloggs]

Hah, my painting table has:

3 28mm morokanth
1 28mm cowboy
24 28mm macedonian pikemen
1 28mm duck
1 28mm feline pirate
4 28mm tomb kings chariots, in stages of assembly
2 6mm indian elephants
6 28mm wss austrian grenadiers.
6 28mm cossacks.

And you complain about focus!

Bit of a downer for those hefalumps. They'll feel like bloody mice.

They are holding there own, they are a bad height for the males if they are given any grief.

So.....er.....I had this idea......I mean, I’ve got all that Grand Manor Peninsula resin I’d been using for Garibaldi.......and, er........it seemed a pity to restrict it to that and it was intended for the Peninsula originally, shame not to use it as Dave Bodley intended.......and I remember these photos of Perry 40mm with it and, I mean, they are big buildings and do fit 40mm and......um....those Perry’s 40mm are very nice ....... and I don’t need many of them, say 6 a side for 1:1 skirmish.....and maybe 2 sides - French, British - is only 12 figures...... ok, 3 sides if I include Guerillas....and they do nice casualty figures so I could have a casualty for each man, so 36 figures, Max....honest...and I am reusing terrain so it does work out more cost efficient. Obs really

Aren't 40mm just heroic 25mm?
