The Loose Association of Wargamers

I just bought into Mark Copplestone's Little Soldiers range and am using them to resurrect a project I started back in the late 90s. It involves a little group of nations nestling somewhere in the lost backwoods of the now-defunct Austro-Hungarian Empire. The first one to see actual troops on the painting table is Monteaggro, a coastal Grand Duchy with loosely held ties to Fascist Italy but also courting France for much needed armaments.

I have also bought a shedload of Mark's Berglanders which I will use as the Austrian/German-backed Schlaffe Alte-Stoffkatze. Just trying to come up with a none-too-nazi colour scheme for them.

wow thats a lovely job - this is a great little project

Lovely looking models.


Willz.

great stuff

Lovely job, Zen, very neat and tidy painting. Quality.

I know someone who's going to be greatly tempted by that range once he's seen your toys.

Nice!

Thanks chaps. I love the proportions of these sculpts, I wish there was a WW2 range in similar style, unfussy, not too chunky. Apart from the mitten hands you could easily layer these up in a more modern style.

Is this where the expression "Got mittens" comes from?

Shiny's a re not my thing but those are lovely

I was fully expecting this thread to be a euphemism
