A bit of varnishing .

 


One of the advantages of this spell of hot weather is that is ideal for varnishing toy soldiers. This is my latest batch - the last of the French Infantry (for now) , the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Legere and a French Cavalry General on a new 'dramatic' horse care of my wargaming collegue 'S' who is the proprietor Hinchliffe models and has kindly provided me with the General Staff . Some better photos to follow once they are dry.

  1. I love the gloss Tony, and that General is a very dashing figure indeed!

  2. Loverly and beautifully shiny, especially Eugène (I presume?).
    Best wishes, James

  3. Looking great in their glossy coats and the Hinchliffe general is a cracking figure.

    1. They do nice Generals which luckily are about the right size.

  4. Nothing like a shiny Hinchliffe figure to add a touch of class; that's a very handy friend you have there.

    1. Sadly think the rank and file are to large , but you can get away with the generals.
