Title: Indian Mutiny project ~ February update
Post by: Yankeepedlar01 on 27 February 2011, 12:36:05 PM: I've painted 110 figures for the project this month, all from Foundry except the artillery pieces which are from Mutineer Miniatures { and one I got on eBay}.

Thanks, Sepo1857,I really have the bit between my teeth for this project at the moment. I'm quite pleased by the bases too, I don't usually take as much trouble over them as I should in other armies, not gifted by too much patience it seems...
Currently finishing off HM's 7th Foot and painting three of the splendid Mutineer Miniatures village buildings ~ easier on the old eyes than the figures!
Cheers!
