The Royal Navy shore contingent {from HMS Pinafore} man the 32lb naval guns hauled inland from their saucy ship ~
Bases in a style which could be used on either sea or land deployment in my view. These were based by Jon before the collection returned and was not one I would have dared attempt, hampered as I am by ten thumbs when it comes to conversions.Captain and crew deployed as skirmisher bases to defend their guns. All the figures of course painted back in the early 1990's and from the Prodigal Foundry Collection of course. As are these last few Roosian infantry making up a few skirmish bases ~And channeling my 'inner Jock' and not wanting to waste any figures, a Command stand for them ~And with these remnants all the infantry, Command figures and artillery have been refurbished and rebased leaving only the cavalry to process over the winter months. Next up here for you, the Grenadier Guards.
I see no ships π
ReplyDeleteNot surprising as I have none for the period...yet.
DeleteExcellent use of spare fighters David
ReplyDeleteI take it by “inner Jock” you are referring to your (imagined) devilishly good looks…and generosity π€£ππ€£.
All the best. Hoots!
You have it in one McMorrison!π
DeleteAmazing. progress on your project!
ReplyDeleteWell, not much painting beyond the new bases has proved necessary. That helps the process considerably.
DeleteCracking work there David! Those guns look good on their wooden platforms and love the Russian command base, with them all looking in the same direction:).
ReplyDeleteThanks SteveJ!

ReplyDeleteVery kind there Andy, thanks.
