Marie-Louises IV - Mission Creep!


The first two battalions are more-or-less finished, but alarmingly more figures have appeared on the painting tray- the beginnings of a third battalion!  

In other news Kawe of Westfalia Miniatures very kindly "exchanged" some of their products for a set of my "To the Strongest!" rules.  He gave me a very generous exchange rate, thanks Kawe!  :-) Consequently I have some lovely new toys, some of which I started to prep last night, including a colonel for the new battalion.

As well as being beautifully sculpted, these are amongst the cleanest-castings I have ever come across (and I buy Aventines!). I struggled to find a use for my file. Much, much better than the quality of the Perry castings. Westfalia also make lovely vignettes which one doesn't come across in other ranges, and their guns and vehicles have no peers.

    1. Legatus, a man of your purchasing habits needs Westfalia. Have a look at the Cantiniere loading a musket, and the poor Marie-Louise casualty in a wheelbarrow!
