Oh the old "I'm in Ikealand and can't make it" excuse eh?

That's the one. Careful wording is the key. :)

I am toying with the idea to order some more Eureka Grenadier Guards and paint them in all black as a body guard to his Lordship. Rather implausible but it would look kinda cool in a VBCW context.

Aye, it's another VBCW matching pair; like black and shirt, anglican and league, etc.

I've not been able to field my Lord C yet as I've run out of magnets for the bases so can't safely transfer it.

Is Sir Ian McKellen now the most modelled actor in 28mm? After several versions of 'himself as Gandalf' by the Perrys and others for GW, now we have himself as Richard III by Mr Hicks. I can almost guarantee someone somewhere has made an X-Man model of him as Magneto, and a Golden Compass model of the polar bear he provided the voice for... I await the Widow Twankey miniature with eager anticipation  :)

Just bought one from Solway on EBay for £6.50 painted.

Ah, yes, that'd be nice. Believe it or not, I could really use one for LPL5.

Beautiful work. The paint job and the miniature itself remind me of Ian McKellen in the 30's Richard III.

EDIT: Which apparently is exactly what the model is supposed to be. Congrats to the sculptor for being able to make me see an actor's face in 28mm without even realizing it.

I had a bit of a panic last night as I thought I'd lost mine after driving hundreds of miles to be at Albanich.
After much searching he came to light. Now I've got to do a decent paint job on him.
