Just an opinion, nothing more. Posts deserve a response I think or we risk seeing less if folk are discouraged by few comments. You surely noted I said they were nicely rendered?

What he said.
Crimean war in 28mm holds zero appeal to me, but I don't feel the need to go on your gallery thread and say so.
Isn't it a Forum for discussion? You must have noted I said they were nicely done? Why get your knickers in a twist then? As I've said before it's a broad hobby and can accommodate all types. By the by, your reply says you have zero interest in the Crimean War, must ask why you bothered to say that as it's exactly what you criticised my post for? Have a nice day!

Why, yes.
Yes, I did note your faint, grudging praise among the churlish and unnecessary airing of your preferences.
As to 'why I bothered' etc...
If you need it spelling out, then the answer is "to illustrate precisely how cunty you were being".
Hope that helps.

Now now, Gentlemen please, calm yourselves down. Each to their own, let's not have any fisticuffs eh. Some periods scales etc appeal to some & not to others.
Sometimes comments/opinions can come across as harsher than is actually meant, on a screen. Let's be pleasant to each other & not be falling out. There we are. Group hugs all round.

No, not really, very nice. I'm confused though, are they SSM or your own make? I like the style & esp the base & table matching colour.

The chap on the horse is all Perry.
The others are mine. The chaps in kepis are available from Spencer Smith. The figures in the floppy hats are my conversions which I've just sent to Peter at SSM, but I don't know what he'll do with them, seeing as the range is being packed up to cross the Atlantic.
