  1. Good to see them ready for action. I should mention that I got the Guards from the wargamehermit a few years ago.

    1. It's a small world after all! So I have Wargamehermit to thank as well. More to follow from the Guards as I complete more of them.

  2. Something about the paint job and pose reminded of the old display cabinets full of figures in my local toy shop way back when I had to be lifted up to see them. They are really nicely done.

    1. Cheers Mr Sprinks. Some of the figures were already painted and just needed a touch here and there plus a coat of varnish.

  7. Those are the ones Joe! Great little figures (even if they are carrying a plank of wood sharpened to a point)
