I purchased a handful of loose Foundry Chinese figures at Hammerhead yesterday and as I already have many duplicates from the range thought head-swaps would be a good idea to add some fresh reinforcements. The figures all have pigtails but the plan was to marry those up at the back and see if the head position "worked".

I carefully removed two heads with the saw and quickly test fitted them with a resounding "this may actually work" result so set to work attaching the first one properly. After much fiddling, always the case when pinning, I got the first one attached - taking extra special care matching up the two parts of the pigtail at the back. I must say I was over the moon with the fit and the natural look of the pose until I realised I had only gone and put the original head back onto its original body

How about a sample of the language you used when you realised? I bet you didnt chuckle to yourself and say "oops".

Excellent. Things like that happen - the important thing is to share them with others!

Oh my! I almost fell out of my chair!
I think we have all had such moments.

Yep, been there and not a happy camper at that! The Tudor monarchs would have been displeased with you. Sorry to read, but I'm quite sure when you redo the miniature it will look fab!

Keep smiling,

Helen

I can identify. I've had one of those lifetimes...although now I can rack days like that up to imminent senility.
