And another promption as well  :D

This project has been derailed by ITLSU. I have cleared the painting table and am now awaiting the arrival of about 20 Battalions/Regiments of 1914 British & Germans. Apparently they are very near the top of the to cast pile  :) Hopefully Royal Mail will be prompt  :!!

Forecast for weekend is not looking promising for pictures of the 71st Foot and Regiment von Bose. :(

I also need to tidy up, my wife is back from a month in the Philippines next week...

Unfortunately the forecast was correct, cloudy all weekend, so still no pictures. Frosty but fine as I head off to work  >:(

Forecast for Saturday is good so hopefully 71st Foot and Regiment von Bose will finally get in front of the camera.  :-w

Royal Mail & NZPost were fairly prompt and Peter dropped off the British and Germans last night, he hadn't even opened the package  :o

Peter has kindly created a painting diary for this project http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,10195.0.html so those interested (primarily Peter  ;D) can follow progress

Weather was kind and I managed to get some pictures of my last of my AWI before focusing on WWI.

1st Battalion, 71st Foot





2nd Battalion, 71st Foot





Regiment von Bose





Sun was setting when I got a chance to take these so lighting not as good as I would like  :(

Also I have had to replace my old PC and don't have Lightroom on my new Laptop yet so post processing isn't as good as I would like either  :(

Finished painting Peter's WWI, just basing of last batch left to do, so ...

Sorted out 6 battalions of American Milita, 96 figures to paint before our next order arrives. (With my Sinai 1917 and I believe a few top up WWI figues for Peter)  :)

This will be the third, and largest, of the four American Militia brigades I plan to do. I also have one brigade of Loyalist Militia planned.

I will hopefully get these undercoated this weekend ;)
