Owner of a plastic mountain and Chinese 28mm

Hi Chaps,

Well I could not resist the local model shop and I bought 3 T-34/85 tanks from the plastic soldier company and a box of their Russian Infantry. With no games under my belt this year I now have two opposing forces, a map and a little plastic mountain of figures waiting to be painted and based....ahh I have a sense of being a true gamer almost!

This afternoon in a bright spell I braved the freezing weather to snap a few pictures of my 28mm Chinese Great Swords and infantry....they are a joy to paint but SO much more expensive than 20mm!



It will take me years to become a miniature Chinese Warlord but only a few weeks to be a 20mm general...what have you Chaps been up to?

  2. Look great, I am busy prepping loads and loads of figures for the winter painting challenge. I have Madhist, Sudan Brits, Zulus and Afghan Tribesmen so I have a permanent smell of primer on me at the moment
    Peace James

  3. Haha the smell of primer! Lethal stuff. Good to see that others are struggling to get an end result....having said that has anyone completed an army to the point where you would not add another unit to it?

  6. They look great. Been busy with work can't wait to start my Kickstarter figures but feeling to tired to make a start with the cleaning and prep work.

  7. I am in agreement with you all...this hobby can be a slow process! Because it can be time consuming one does need to have a burst of enthusiasm to start something new. Keep plodding on and eventually you will have a vast army :)
