I managed to get some painting done over Christmas , my order from Replica Miniatures arrived so I was busy gluing up and painting the Naval Brigade figures I wanted . They are Britains solid re-casts and here are manning an old 4.7 gun .
Here is a Naval landing party , again modern re-casts , I could do with ordering another 4 of these to make it up to a unit whilst using 'A Gentleman's War' rules .
Here they are again resplendent in gloss varnish and traditional pink cheeks .
They are very nice Tony...
ReplyDeleteI do like the Replica Miniatures I also like the 4.7... I have one as well...
All the best. Aly
Yes there are a surprising number about on ebay.
DeleteWell done Tony - always favor a Naval Brigade - especially a British one. Nice to see the Britains re-casts. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteThanks and a Good New Year to you too.
DeleteVery nice work, and always a useful addition to a collection. Have spent my hobby time restoring old Britains, paint stripping, drilling on new rifles, filling holes, replacing heads. Have only just started to paint something!

I must admit I have quite a few figures to reclaim but couldn't resist the lure of new figure painting .
DeleteWe sail the ocean blue and our saucy ship’s a beauty, we are sober men and true and attentive to our duty...

DeleteVery nice looking figures Tony and the gun is terrific!
ReplyDeleteThe gun is a classic and still fires matchsticks !
DeleteDelightful!
