Valhalla

I popped down to Valhalla in Farnborough on Sunday for the first time in at least 15 years.
I took my 5 year old along for a treat and he was a good boy all day and his reward was 2 bags of Star Wars plastic figures. He had to have a play as soon as we got home.
For myself I came back with a mass of Ironclad Miniatures. I was planning to pick up British Naval Brigade Boarding Party packs (BR05,06 & 12) and maybe a steam tank. I came home with the 3 packs above, 2 tanks (Steam05 medium tank  & Steam 06a 4 wheeled armoured car) and I liked the painted up Sanwar so much I bought a pack of nearly the whole range. There was also a great character range but I mange to resist all but one - Phileas with steam powered claws.
I undercoated the boarding party last night and need to get started on them ASAP.

The purchases 

New Rules

Received on Friday from Amazon 'On Her Majesty's Name' - nicely presented with some lovely photo's and artwork. Rules seem ok - not really my scene but never say never.
I'm going to see who does some suitable figures and maybe paint up a couple of companies.

What's happening?

Not much really
I've not posted for two months not having done much painting. I had to help the eldest make a castle for her school project, not  a bad effort but she didn't come first. Then the change in the weather has meant a few projects in the garden.
The time has flown by and the Neo-Assyrian chariots are taking a long time to do. I was planning to have a couple of hours yesterday and today to crack on with them but won't be happening now.
Need to stay motivated.

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.

Choices choices

Last night the ugly question raised it's head again.

What to paint next?

15mm, 28mm - what inspires?

I looked at numerous boxes of unpainted figures with no inspiration.

I finally decided on the project I took a break from to paint the Chindits,15mm Neo-Assyrians (from Chariot Miniatures). 800 points (or there abouts) for FOG. Only 11 chariots to paint and a lot of basing to be done.

Here are a few more Chindit photo's.
