WW1 in East Africa Unit Completed
I finished off the last six figures in one sitting yesterday evening but had to leave the basing for 24 hours.
And that really is it as far as a lead pile goes - of course, I do have bits and pieces of things that I need more figures for before there is any point in painting them, but I genuinely have NO complete, unpainted units to work on. I suppose I had better work on convincing my good lady of the need to invest in more toy soldiers....
The finished results are terrific! Out of unpainted lead? Unbelievable.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan - yes I have been congratulated in the past on my buying discipline but I think the current situation may be a bit too extreme!
DeleteA splendid looking unit....
ReplyDeleteBUT!
No toy soldiers to paint... nightmare...steal some... ;-)
All the best... Aly
That's a good idea Aly - now, where can I find some unattended lead to half inch!
DeleteWell done rross, they look great!
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil
DeleteLovely looking troops! Not sure I can relate to having no figures to paint, with total fiscal discipline it would still take years to reach your position!

Thank Iain - I have probably over stated the position - if I really looked I could find bits and pieces to paint - but I don't have anything to complete or any full unpainted units, so picking up five Sikh Wars infantry or seven Wars of the Roses bowmen does not really fill me with inspiration!
