New Years Resolution



Some Prussians before the issue of suitably dastardly moustaches  

I haven’t been posting much of late and that has been almost entirely down to a whirlwind of work and Kinchlets.  Toddlers are tremendous fun,  but they do soak up an awful lot of time. 

In the mean time I have been painting these fellas.  They are Britains recasts by Replica Miniatures and they serve no wargaming purpose,  I bought them because I fancied them.   They shall be glossed within an inch of their lives and will then march across one of my bookshelves. The “painting by numbers” approach is very easy with these big figures and there’s something quite soothing and restful about it. 

That’s all for now. We shall see if I can keep this blogging malarkey up - I’ve missed it.

  3. Prussian moustaches are dastardly.
    French moustaches are foreign and rather sinister.
    British moustaches are honest and manly.

    1. I hadn’t realised the Church had fully articulated its position on this.

  4. The moustaches should be a top priority! Only a decade or so before one of the Kinchlets can start growing his own!

    Regards, Chris.

  9. You SAY they have no wargaming purpose but, as the Kaiser found out, once the trains start rolling...
