Excellent work lads, 'specially Plynkes' dead fuzzy  8)

I have to say this bleedin' expedition seems to be full of bloody overfed public school wastrels who just want to sit about slurping pink gin and stuffing their faces, 'ats on! Abaht turn!  ;)
Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.

None of tha pink gin for me.  A spot of the warres 1896 would go down quite nicely.

Civilisation arrives in the virgin lands of the Empire #51 - Fiona



'Tall' Fiona (32mm Malifaux) travels in the expedition looking to set up shop, and sell her wears to officers and natives alike. She is a modern woman who couldn't be accused of being racist. ;)

Cheers
Matt

Some say she's headed for Bangkok, but perhaps thats just a rumour. ;)

I hope she fits in ok with these 1700-1800's adventures. She was the best figure I had in the lead pile.

No 52 "Big Vicky"

Some really nice and unusual entries gents, keep them coming. This one is a British Naval 32pdr cannon and crew which is produced by Empress miniatures in their New Zealand wars range. It will see service however in many parts of the globe in the 1840's including my adventures into India and Africa and possibly in an interesting "what if" in the US/MEX war.
Cheekily nicknamed after Her Majesty, she will hopefully in the near future be joined by some Matelots acting in their infantry role.
Cheers till the next entry.

So, for you who are British,
 What part of the Queen is "Miss Vicky named after?" :o ;)
