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 ;D

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

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

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.
If it’s too hard, I can’t do it

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.
