Roll Call - Part One
As I have nothing new to paint or photograph, I decided to copy Mark's idea of looking at my collection in its totality. I have decided to put a different slant on it and open up the boxes too - so here is the first batch of boxes I dragged out this evening, in no particular order
First up - above and below - 15mm WW2 British
War of 1812 - British above and Americans below
A small collection of Napoleonic Portuguese - need to add to these at some point
Above - four units for the Carlist War of the 1830's
Above - Russian Civil War collection "so far" - I intend to add to this soon
WW1 in East Africa British forces - more to add to this collection too!
Above - War of Spanish Succession Dutch Infantry
Above- War of Spanish Succession Danish Infantry and Dutch/Danish cavalry
Small British Crimean collection - the Light Division
Mid 19th Century British Colonial troops - Sikh Wars ranges by Old Glory - mostly
Above 20mm German and below 20mm British and Russian plastic figures for Chain of Command games
Above and the two below - Wellington in India British and East India Company troops by Redoubt Miniatures
That's enough for tonight - will post the next instalment later this week
Very nice collections. Of these, which is your favorite?
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan - this is about 25% of the total number of figures in my possession! To be honest, no, I dont think I do have a favourite period/collection - anything I am not overly interested in, I don't collect/paint (and of course, that does not mean there are not numerous armies/conflicts that I would still like to paint figures for one day!)
DeleteNice diverse collection,I can't contemplate anything but 28mm to be honest,are any of these complete to your mind?
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain. To be honest, I agree with your sentiment - I only really have 15mm for WW2 - oh, and a few ultra moderns too. We very rarely game with 15mm, despite the fact we all have gazillions of the bloody things! The 20mm for CoC was an economic decision - I could get a whole box of 40 odd for about 10-12 quid I think :)
DeleteSplendid sir...
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Cheers Aly - keep watching - many more still to be revealed!
