Splendid.
My first metal figures were Minifigs and Hinchliffe Napoleonics circa 1978. Happy days!

A great job by your dad! Neat painting, clear lines, shading, faces, and all!
And most of all this previously said by flags_of_war: They can still stand the test of time! Great!

I LOVE seeing the old Hinchliffe painted up. Those wer always my figures growing up as a kid, but I could never afford them. Now that I can afford better looking figures, I still love the Hinchliffe models as they transport me back to the days of seeing them on display in magazines highlighting Peter Gilder's work. Thank you for sharing.
