That is some collection.
Have you ever played a game with everything on the table?
Would be something to see.

A superb collection, thank you for sharing.  I particularly like the effort that has gone into the infantry basing.  I'm currently trying to decide whether to do WW2 in 15mm or 20mm, and this is pushing me away from 15s! :)

Lovely to see the attention to detail, like the redcap and the map-reader, in among such a huge collection.

Fantastic! Very nicely done. I'm guessing it's 20mm?

Thanks pal! :)

You know what? i'd go with a black edge on the bases: the side is just drybrushed, and i think that if covered with black will give quite a "professional" look on those spectacular bases!

Piers,

why when I read your post I have always this thought:

"one of these day he will conquer the world with his armies... have to paint more to stop him!"

I used to do that, and to be honest I dont like it anymore, looks weird, too GW... Actually repainted the last of the black edged bases last night.  :D
