“You never know what to expect on encountering royalty. I've seen 'em stark naked except for wings of peacock feathers (Empress of China), giggling drunk in the embrace of a wrestler (Maharani of the Punjab), voluptuously wrapped in wet silk (Queen of Madagascar), wafting to and fro on a swing (Rani of Jhansi), and tramping along looking like an out-of-work charwoman (our own gracious monarch).”

This is a must-have, looks great!   :-*

Is the fan separate to ease the painting?

They are really nice sculpts, I didn't realise I needed a Flashman, although I knew I needed the Dragon Lady.

Um, I think I need these minis!
...although I recognize I never did read Mr Flashman's adventures... I probably spent too much time trying to improve my knowledge of the English language with all these Tolkien and Pratchett books, and watching all the Sharpe TV series... :D ...so I ignored this apparently very interesting officer!
