Update for the week

I have been quite busy finishing off some small projects. 

First off, I have completed my colonial highland regiment, by adding another figure and an officer, bringing the total up to 12.  They are by Barry Minot. The new figures were kindly given to me by a very generous wargamer:

Also donated to the cause are these lovely rifle armed Zulus, also by Minot:

I have also completed a group of Hadendowah warriors. These came from Tradition and I believe they are from the original Stadden range:


And finally, just for fun, I felt the urge to paint some Airfix Union soldiers in the form of a kneeling firing line:

  1. All looking great, especially the old Airfix figures! That must represent quite a few boxes of Union Infantry.
