Ya gotta love the motto!  lol

But it's nothing to sing about.


I tried to keep a record of colours used, but when I came to try & match figures,
flipping paint was no longer available!

Captain you need to be applauded for getting many of us to reopen our interest in the ECW. I'm currently waiting for an order from Bicorne and cannot wait to get started on them. Your colourful paint jobs have inspired us all.

Oh Lord. I'm sorry  ;) lol (But thank you :))

Meanwhile, apropos of not very much, I remembered I had these in the lead pile... They're from North Star's 1672 range (I think by Steve Saleh in this case?) so they're a little more Restoration that First Civil War, but hey, only a few years out...
I figured they'd pass muster for a pair of Royalist wicked ladies - supernumeraries for populating game scenarios... :)







The ladies bid farewell to the brave troops...



Lady Astley discusses tactics, her companion discusses novel uses for drumsticks...




And another old master...  lol

lol It’s supposed to be a ‘painting’ effect. Not very good is it?  ;)
Maybe against a burgundy or midnight blue background it could be mistaken for a rembrandt  :D

Excellent Richard, not totally brainwashed converted to the ECW but getting piqued  ;)
Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.

Very nice indeed.   Given your age in LAF years, surely you qualify as an old master?  lol
