Perry mounted Afghans,with added poshteens.
« on: February 08, 2021, 02:11:02 PM »
A little experiment to see if the Perry Afghans in summer clothing could be depicted in a more winter type attire.The first three done.
Green stuff rolls added at cuff and neck to simulate the mini as wearing a sheepskin coat.
I know Studio Miniatures provide sculpted minis like this but I like the Perry's sculpts and wanted to give it a go  :)
Thanks for looking in :)

They have come out really well, if you'd just showed the painted figures I would never of known. Cracking stuff! ;D :-*

Some of the figures have so gigantic hands that you can use them as mutants in Warhammer 40K. Do Foundry still have the Perry Afghans, maybe this fit well.

Sometimes the truth is harsh. The rest of studio miniatures are brilliant (zombie-stuff), so this figures were double disappointment to me.

I'm dead jealous. Back in the late 80s some of my friends and I held a jumble sale to raise money for the printing of a friend's punk-rock anti-Thatcher (!) fanzine. At the end of it all there was a lovely unsold poshteen for someone to claim. My mate Moley bagsied it. I wanted it so much. I even said to him, "you'll never wear it, I know you. Let me have it." The bastard refused. I would have worn it all the time. I was right, he never did. Not once.


Well, that's my poshteen story. I love the things, but there are still lingering resentments there, under the surface. So I'm not sure how I feel to see these ones.  :)


Sorry, got distracted. Good job, Romark.
