Title: Cantinière
Post by: Will Bailie on 12 November 2012, 05:20:24 PM
A beautiful cantinière to aid and succour the troops in the field.  My amazing and lovely wife (I love her so much!!) pointed out that she is not suitable to accompany the French troops that I'm currently working on, as she is from the era of the Revolutionary Wars.  Sexy and a historian (and button counter!) to boot!

She is from Eureka Miniatures.  She comes with victuals that I will (eventually) add to her cart.

I didn´t know that Eureka broadened their field of business... :D

Nice miniature!
Thanks for sharing.

Tell your wife this young business woman is using a unused surplus clothing item to brand her business ("Olde Style Refreshments") and save on her business uniform expenses.

Gracias,

Glenn

Thanks for catching that  ;)  As a clarification, the miniature cantinière is from Eureka.  As far as I know, Eureka has not taken up human trafficking, and Eureka had nothing to do with me meeting my wife. 

Glenn, thanks for your advice, much better than my idea, which was to tell her that no one I game with is likely to notice.

Looking forward to getting it finished.
