Wonderful collection you have there!

I especially like the Afghans and the Prussians.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, the finished Prussians look great "in action". My earlier reservations about using the Pickelhaub have gone and I think they are ideal for VSF colonial troops  :D

Not being critical, but maybe if you gave a steel dry-brush to the areas of the track that come in contact with the ground, the landship would look even better?

Ugh! I had my nose so deep in the minis that I didn't even notice that I had forgotten that bit... whoops!

Fantastic army there. The Prussians look great in white.
You've only got, what, 70-odd figures left to paint?  ::)

Well, let me quote my self on page 1: ;) :D

I'll unveil the project in it's entirety to y'all then:

60 prussian line infantry (Foundry French Prussian War)
30 prussian sailors (Old Glory austrian sailors)
30 afghan partisans (Old Glory Pathans w/ swords)






Fantastic army there. The Prussians look great in white.

Thanks! Yup - I'll be done by november. Including terrain. These babies are going to Horisont in Denmark I hope.

Don't know what to call these yet. They're prussian steel gun turrets. Two armed with cannon, and one with a haubitze.


Don't remember if I¨ve shown this one before. Old Void dinosaur, now aiding the prussian war in India. I'll be adding some guns to the sponsons sooon.

This is an outstanding army!

Good idea with the VOR model. I had totally forgotten about it.

Thank you. I might add that I've drilled the "rivets", added the gun, the sponsons, the chimney and the top hatch myself. But the model is easily made VSF. Only reservation for me is the leaning front armour.

Great Stuff! I particularly like the clutterred nature of your workbench. It looks a lot like my own  :)
Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly
down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red
Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture,
torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals.
