Can you hear the drums?

I drink paint to make the drums stop...(cue bass solo gag).

Excellent paint jobs on those
I've got a few packs from the KS to get sorted and some rather nice buildings too...…….must stop flitting about and find something to concentrate on!

Nice figures Dog, looking forward to seeing you get a few games in

My love of Sassanians (as we should call them now) dates from Charles Grant’s ‘Wargames Tactics’ when globe hats were definitely all the rage anyway.

Hello Dog. Good to have you back.

Nice army.

Little Britons French infantry. Part of my birthday present. I'm trying an experiment with the preparation. I've deflashed them and given them a scrub. Now they're having a few minutes in the ultrasonic cleaner in neat cider vinegar from the pet food store.

Did you forget the salt, olive oil and lemon juice?

I stopped soaking figures in vinegar after someone on The Place We Don Not Name suggested that lead acetate might be a precursor to lead rot. Of course, if these are just tin and zinc it won't be a problem.
