And your boy's painting is terrific! I also really like the sculpts of these plastic figures. They have a nice pre-slotta-like vibe to them. private w.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13382664057092304789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015784305384821687.post-1122756410842410712014-01-24T14:38:28.456+00:002014-01-24T14:38:28.456+00:00Many thanks your Dukeship..... more to follow soon...Many thanks your Dukeship..... more to follow soon hopefully.Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015784305384821687.post-88593349273633328702014-01-24T14:37:52.627+00:002014-01-24T14:37:52.627+00:00Thanks Guy, hopefully it will mean more regular po...Thanks Guy, hopefully it will mean more regular posts on this blog!Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015784305384821687.post-25362451313490006342014-01-24T14:37:13.263+00:002014-01-24T14:37:13.263+00:00Thanks Erny, it's good to get them while they ...Thanks Erny, it's good to get them while they are young. <br /><br /> Dark/Light Alliance do 2 boxes of warg riders which are ok but the steeds look more like hyenas than wolves, but at £6 for 12 cavalry I'm not complaining. For the wargs proper (i.e. the ones without riders) I'll be using either Garrison (95p for 2), Prince August (£10 for a mould and then an infinite number) or making my own mould from a discontinued Minifigs figure.<br /><br />The 10mm figures are great (I have a few Warmaster armies) but I can no longer paint such little figures without getting a headache :-(Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015784305384821687.post-29163195216602177272014-01-24T14:31:45.000+00:002014-01-24T14:31:45.000+00:00Thanks Gareth, I see you use the same picture as y...Thanks Gareth, I see you use the same picture as your blog header.Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015784305384821687.post-82683621476596943222014-01-24T09:02:15.571+00:002014-01-24T09:02:15.571+00:00Supper stuff, why didn't they make cheap 1:72 ...Supper stuff, why didn't they make cheap 1:72 fantasy when I was a kid.

As a child I used to spend hours pouring over 'The Battle of The Five Armies' by John Blanche and it remains one of my favourites to this day. I'll have a rummage around and see if I can donate anything to the cause.Garethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09486311422850536804noreply@blogger.com
