About Me

My photo
London, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Russian Grenadiers - Finished

I got back home about half an hour ago after my weekend away. I did get the basing done while I was at my Dad's place, so after emptying my bag I quickly took some "finished" pics.








These extras will be added to generals' bases (after touch-ups on the chins!)

They'll be getting their first tabletop outing this afternoon and I expect them to die ingloriously, given that they are newly painted!

I will be taking pics, provided my camera battery has recharged sufficiently before I head out.

    Very nice. I thought about using Russians for Borduria in an 18th century imagi-nations project I am starting, but I went with Prussians instead and with Austrians for Syldavia.

    Great stuff Tamsin. How did they do on the field of glory? Now that I broke the spell with Millsy's newly painted troops (who did brilliantly in our game and didn't take a single casualty) that old sacred cow is dead!
