OK, as I have not had time to assemble any of the buggers over the weekend and time is running out, here is a shot of a couple of castings for now.....

....which will have to suffice for my 'pre-painting' piccie.
A bit of clean-up is required before I prime one but that is no bother, just a few quick swipes with a file.
Now I just have to hope that I can find the time to paint one and sort out its base before the deadline.
