All done!
18 figures painted - I'll take some better pictures when they're based - maybe at weekend.
Thanks for the kind comments. Simon.

DeLancy's Loyalists done - just hope those delicate plastic bayonets hold up!





Next unit will be from South Carolinas - either SC Royalists or Continental Line.

I'm also tackling figures for campsite vignette, one by one - first chap discussing tactics (or the price of tea?).

Wonderful Simon. Love the vignette figure. What a great little character. The officer and the drummer are also particularly splendid.

I know what you mean about the bayonets... Having built a few of the new Britosh colonial infantry, the bayonets do look ever so fragile...  ::)

Lovely stuff Simon, I've got a box of these plastics somewhere up the man cave I'll have to keep this thread in mind when I eventually get to paint them.

A little progress to report...
The campsite vignette have now become three, with others prepared. Those are plastics for South Carolina Royalists lurking in the background.



Am also starting a long intended house build - based loosely on the Yorktown Customs House - a superb model of which John Boadle did some years ago. I'm luck to have some castings of windows and doors from John to use on my efforts. Components and progress to date shown here - am going at snail pace as have some trepidation with scratched buildings (as I've never done one before!!). A card shell with embossed brick paper walls and cornice from dolls house supplier...will show more pics as I go.

Gamer Mac - the campsite vignette is a Perry metals pack (AW 176) - comes with a camp fire, but I've lost the wooden tripod (so have prospect of making replacement).

Camp site vignette done - with replacement tripod over the fire.









Now onto tackling construction of the stone house.
Thanks for all the supportive comments!
