Well I suppose it is better to dismount mounted policemen than it is to try mounting dismounted ones.

I wouldn't try either.

I'm retired, I've had enough of that mounting and being mounted sort of thing.

Contemplating a bid on this for shiny scenery but is a 15" long barn too big for 42mm?

I suspect it's made for something like Britain's farm animals etc, so might be a bit too big. It's a bit crude but I wouldn't mind that for my Wild West 54mm.

That's probably what it works best as. I shall leave it alone as I have loads of other things to get on with.

Has the world started spinning the other way or something?
Buff has never backed out of a casual and unnecessary purchase before.

Because Ayton 1 is looming large I'm obviously working on stuff for Ayton 2. I've been repurposing some 28mm C19th figures by gloss varnishing them etc...
However I've hit a problem in that getting them off of the base is akin to trying to take a pie out of Peelers grasp.
I can't think of any real issues with using multibased troops for 'Gentlemans War' but can anyone else?

I suspect I might have used epoxy and I don't think the freezer works for that? Plus i'd have to explain to the wife that I was eating twenty four sausages to make room for four dozen askaris that needed debasing
