I should have been at Borodino!
« on: March 31, 2020, 06:21:44 AM »
Last week should have seen me on my travels with a trip to a few wineries followed by a large multiplayer refight of the battle of Borodino in Wellington NZ.
Regrettably rather than writing a battle report I find myself reduced to posting pictures of the figures I'd intended to transport instead
Best wishes to all and hope it might help a little in relieving boredom!

Wonderful pics, and enjoyed perusing your blog while admiring your gaming room.

Those are beautiful!  Masses of Russians are always impressive.  Painting masses of Russians - the person who does that is an impressive individual!  Hats off.

 :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* I just finished perusing your blog site and you have one impressive collection of figures! Very nicely done too! How long did it take you to clean and paint up your Russian Naps (and how many do you have?)?

Keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I missed this as I haven't checked out Big Battalions for a while.  Great painting as always, Kerry.  Although, I'm not sure about some of those figures.  A few of the lazy bastards are just lying on the ground doing nothing.
