Taliban 28mm assault miniatures

 Here's the last of this commission even though as i said a new one has already turned up

 I really like these guys and i hope they are fun to play with

 here's the rest of the Afghan forces

here come the British 28mm

I've been working away on these lads for a while they are Assault group miniatures they have really nice detail. I've been waiting for the bases to turn up to get them and the rest of the Afghan and Taliban figures finished. I have already had delivery of another 50 odd figures including Saddam  and quite a few nasty looking lads, some allied mercenaries and more British all for Reg.

28mm ww1 Germans progress report

 These  guys are coming along not quite there but getting closer

I'm working on the ground tonight, I want it to look quite muddy and wet 

so after three layer of paint I've now added a brown dye. the picture at the bottom is a test figure with 

a thin layer of wallpaper glue that dries clear well that's what i'm hoping for i will add the odd tuft of dry brown grass and maybe  a couple with very dark green grass  but i don't think i will add any static grass. Have to see what the client say when he see's my end result.

 How will it dry i'll let you know later

Afghan fighters 28mm

 I've based a few of the figures i have painted up of the latest comission forReg . He supplied me with a few test bases, and they are real nice he got them of trademe NZ. so here are a few pics let me know what you think

 I think there 22 figures per side painted so far but i have another parcel here ready to start

Caesar and Vercingetorix 28mm

Chris asked my to paint up this Wargames illustrated diorama for him i while back. This afternoon when i sat down to paint i though maybe it was time to get it finished sadly the photos don't do it much justice. 

French 28mm Napoleonic army so far

 well four months ago i wasn't even thinking about French 28mm armies and didn't own a single figure it's amazing what a wee bit of madness and a steady painting hand can do i still have a lot of figures left to paint yet but really pleased with the progress so far especially when you think i've been painting more for others than i have for myself

 this light regiment below is one of my favourites

 the first of four regiments of Dragoons
