Last post before Christmas

 I had a few extra Cromarty Forge 10mm Roman Cavalry figures left over, so painted them up as scouts/messengers, on individual bases, including a Decurion (cavalry equivalent of a Centurion, more or less)









A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my visitors, thanks for all your comments and support over the last twelve months!


Our Christmas tree, with an all-silver theme!

  2. The 10mm are really standing up well to ‘camera scrutiny’, not always an easy thing at this scale. Nice Job. Best Wishes for Christmas.

  3. Keith, Merry Christmas. The tree and troops look great. Such good work on such tiny figures, well done. The new year should have some AAR'S on this new project.

    1. Thanks Steve..it is all a bit odd...for example, taking young children out to look at Christmas lights....it's not dark enough for them to be effective till about 9pm, which is too late if they are really young! When I was about that age, it was dark enough in Montrose (NE Scotland) to see lit up trees in people's windows on the way home from school!
