A Few More Painted Figures....

Today I completed the two dismounted versions of the Minden "Gentlemen" As you can see from the poses, they are definitely intended to represent a mounted and dismounted version of the same person, but I decided to paint the dismounted ones differently - I think they have turned out pretty nicely!

On the painting table - and virtually completed (only the basing to do) - are another pair of the Front Rank British Napoleonic 15th Hussars.

Below is an image of a figure by Shadowforge, an Australian company, whose figures are now available via Eureka. I have had this figure sitting painted for the best part of a decade I guess, but have yet to find her any purpose - I just liked the figure! I have a long list of figures in this category - would like to get them and paint them, but have no actual practical use for them in gaming terms...this includes at the moment the Female Minions from Statuesque Miniatures!

And finally just a quick visit to the real world....

A colleague was on the Auckland Southern Motorway mid last week at what is usually bumper to bumper rush hour traffic - think the M25 or any major suburban freeway in any major city anywhere

And finally, yesterday was the second Saturday of lock down and I was again the nominated shopper - still had to queue for ten minutes to get in but as you can see, no crowds at the checkouts - I think I could get used to this lock down, I cant really see a down side yet!
