Hi
My first painted mins after an enforced break due to "real life".
Just to get back into the swing of things I decided to paint up the Alternative Armies abandoned beer wagon and Warlord Games Marshal Ney mini.
Both were fun and just what I needed after a break from the hobby.
The wagon is very nice and with the right paint job should do for a multitude of periods as an objective or just table dressing.
Thanks for looking in

Always nice to have table clutter.
Nice to hide behind & great objective if it is BEER!
Interesting to see how it effects the unit that gets to it first.
I am reminded of Asterix in Britain, where the Legionaries are
busy testing the Britons' 'warm beer' looking to find the one that
contains the magic potion. the line I most remember is,
'Dish his by marrel!'

A great way to get back into it. Never seen that wagon before, its great marker/terrain piece. Ney ain't too shabby either

All you need now is a stove barrel and a few tipsy soldiers - or camp followers!

Great little models, we'll have to find a use for them

Well done.
Where are all the looters?
A wagon like that, left alone,
stuff would be gone in no time.

You're right of course,I'll have to rectify that

I also have that Alternative Armies model wagon and really should get around to painting it!

I thought your painting of the wagon and Ney was great and it may be just the push I was looking for.

Thank you for posting the images.

Great looking piece of table scatter. I am a big fan of this kind of thing.

Still enthused with this period so painted up some troops for Ney to command,will follow up with some Russians shortly.
All minis from the Perry's 1812 range.
Cheers
