Nice one Adam, maybe we should start a painting movement? League of Independant Figure Enthusiasts L.I.F.E for short. This acronym would enable us to shout "Get a L.I.F.E " to struggling gamers stuck in a painting vicious circle. :lol: Join us and, together we will tame the hordes of lead threatenin...

Whilst it may be old news to some of you more veteran painters out there,i've discovered a way of making the big battalions more fun to paint. I'd fallen in to the trap of setting myself targets to have a certain battalion painted by such a date. It was becoming a chore to paint, and then i felt fru...

Thanks Ronan, i will, i wouldnt want to give Amazon a bad name,as for the other book seller...... I'm i justified to name and shame?

Hi folks , just thought i'd flag up a potential hazard when ordering books from Amazon . I've just bought Louis XIV infantry.Men at Arms 203 (Osprey) from Amazon ,now it said this book was out of stock ,however there were four used copies available from other connected book stockists. As i've been a...

Lovely terrain Darkman,is the piano in the street a nod to "Band of Brothers"?

Anyone intrested in the death of Charles I might just be intrested in the exhibition at Lyme park in Cheshire,its brief and focuses mostly on his trial and execution. Some of the engravings and the european reaction to these events are fascinating.On show are the richly embroidered gloves given to a...

And they say there aren't many female gamers, If Beyonce is at the Sheffield Triples its a step in the right direction

Any chance of her phone number Jim? (purely to discuss army lists you understand)

Dear Duke,

I bet beer taste better when drunk in a sunny 27o ,

Anyway, i've sent a letter to the company in question and cancelled my order. I'm not out of pocket( just my luck the order will turn up next day!)


All the best

Mr Dodger, Sounds intresting, couldn't they have called it "Henry Tudor" i mean he did win after all didnt he? Problem with boardgames is that it takes more than one for a decent game, and the wife prefers Guitar Heroes,and the kids aren't old enough not to swallow the counters yet. Still if Pepper ...

Dear Duke, I understand the point you're making,I just feel that sometimes i'm chasing people for them to make money. This seems rather the wrong way round! Anyway, whilst i'm sure the dedication your company has in contacting customers is an example to all;maybe you'd be so kind as to explain this ...

Hey Darrell, Yep i've tried the phone on a number of times and spoken to the same old answerphone. In one case i've been trying to contact the company for over three weeks! Maybe their on holiday,or the wargamers world has sent them over the edge,and are currently rocking themselves gently in a secu...

I like the look of your copplestone french Mr Dodger, I've used a few to add variety to my front rank french. Mostly standard bearers and officers, theres a slight height difference but hey! The new front rank figures for the Grand Alliance might tie in nicely. Keep up the good work and lets see the...

I'm sure i've seen something written about contacting figure manufactures before, but i'm becoming increasingly frustrated at companies never returning enquires . I realise some companies juggle full time jobs as well as family life; but , without naming anyone in paticular , In my search for figure...

Thought they looked familiar!
I've found that foundry and front rank really represent both ends of the "28mm" spectrum, but they say variety is the spice of life!



'heard she been messin round with another man....ufacturer!
(with apologies to Mr Hendrix)

Nice paint job ,very bold and vivid,like the bases too. Are they Foundry figures?



P.S.

There's gotta be a song there somwhere.
