That glorious moment when the job is done!… a close look at the matt will show you the hard work and love put into those Toy Soldiers… Ready to March and Fight on the Tabletop!… and remember the main thing TOY SOLDIERS never die…
Those are not mine at all but I can understand the pride of the painter!

First two pics by John Firth and the last by John Clarke. All easy to see in Facebook if you go to A GENTLEMAN’S WAR group… I dutifully bought the rules by Howard Whitehouse… they are fun to read… but not what I do with 54mm Toy Soldiers… You need all sorts you know…
Those are very fine Toy Soldiers and excellently painted, I do not use mine with those rules, and I have to say they are more “historically collected” and only for display because I have them in 6mm too… and there is where I wargame…

You must be tired of my wanderings, but that surely completes the big cabinet.
Now, if only Andrew Stevens admits orders in September I would be sorely tempted in adding three or four figures to the other cabinet…

Military Modelers seem to enjoy the challenge of painting tartan… see here a quite fine example.

A bit of back to Basics today… how those old minis managed to survive some generations of children is always amazing. Enjoy.

On a trip to London (UK) my parents had the great idea of bringing to me this awesome set of BRITAINS… one of the last produced before going “plastic”!
I was really pampered because I had been sick for quite a time.
Now, that brought along a lot of reminiscences… just seen in an Auction in the USA… not that I am going to bid at all… I had the real thing at the time it was needed…
I already had a lot of plastic, rubber and aluminium toy soldiers… but that box suddenly become the apex of my loot!
Sorry for the poor quality of the pics but they were really small.
As a result you all know I was hooked on Toy Soldiers for life…

There are probably one of the nicest toy soldiers around, Britain’s Cavalry are almost always splendid casts. Nowadays only REPLICA manages to get the spirit of them.

Cavalry was redundant at the end of the XIXth but no one had the courage to tell them… Magnificent example of a good conversion and painting job.

Fascination with Toy Soldiers is a mild disease I guess…
