Finally some pics of painted figures.

A day off today looking after sickly older boy so took a few pictures of some of the completed PeterPig British paras. It's taken me all day to get around to this point. And i don't know what I've done with the rest of the day ( though i did have an hour's kip in the afternoon).

First up is the company commanders base. This should be on a 4x4 base (for PBI) but I've gone with a round one so i could fit the jeep on as well.

We now have two bases of medics, one with attached priest. I made the fence from a coffee stirer and a piece of a cocktail stick just to give the base a little extra.

Finally some drop canisters. 

I had a number of issues with greying when varnishing. I used both aerosol and a pot of cote D'arms with both causing problems.

Thanks for dropping by.

Peter Pig WW2 US Para's

I am a great fan of Peter Pig figures and have been collecting them since since the mid 1990s.
It was the Hey You in the Jail rules and figures that first got me hooked. I've got the full range with about a 3rd painted and am still interested in getting back to painting the rest one day.
As for the WW2 figures - what a fantastic range. I ve got so many armies (mostly unpainted - but one day).
Here are some pics of the US Paras.

Here are a few more Chindit photo's.

Bolt Action Chindits

It'a only taken nearly 3 years to get something on to this blog but now for my first attempt.

A week or so back I finally finished 48 Chindits. This week I thought I'd done enough scenery to take a few pictures. I hope you enjoy.
