Some great action figures here. Base and scenics courtesy of JG Miniatures (now Sheffield Miniatures) which sets them off lovely.

These are the chaps I’m after…. Cheers 🍻

Been having some fun the last few days displaying the fantastic figures that K&C produce. I’d really like a couple of Guardsman casualties for this small display if anyone has a spare NA135 or NA136 they’d be willing to sell or trade in the UK?

Fortunately she’s not as astute as the forum members and if I intercept the post and slip a few extra soldiers onto the shelves I can sometimes get away with “No, he’s not new, I’ve had him ages” 😀

Just how big does Mr Jenkins think my shelf is? Might squeeze in the artillery set though 🙂

I visited Waterloo a few weeks ago for the reenactment weekend which was fantastic - French, British and Prussian bivouacs to wander through and chat with the re-enactors before the battle in the evening plus the museums to visit. When Mrs Simmo complains I have too many soldiers I can show her...

12” x 12” base and building from JG miniatures for use with UXB sets but a nice base for my retreat to Dunkirk figures. Still after a couple from the range….they do have a lot of character. I was lucky enough to spend a night in Dunkirk a few weeks ago to visit the beach and museum which was...

Finally finding the time to display and photograph my collection. An old range but one of my favourites.

He does look the part John, I have him lurking in the background. Still playing about with photos but the best (so far) is when I use portrait mode on the iPhone for a really clear foreground but it does mean the background is out of focus.

Seriously though, there was a thread a few years ago and a chap painted Zorro characters in shades of black/white/grey as per the TV series and they were absolutely fantastic and so inventive

Easy paint job…..black and white 😀

I put the British officer from the War of 1812 in for a bit of colour really amongst the Cazadores

He certainly does. I would love a few redcoat infantry in patched up trousers and worn out boots for this series.

A few more….

Bit of a favorite of mine. Great figures and have had 2 trips to Spain & Portugal on the motorbike visiting Sahagun, Ciudad Rodrigo, Fuentes de Onoro, Badajoz, Talavera and Vittoria.

Some lovely casualty figures were produced for Napoleonic French Dragoons and Old Guard but not in the Voltigeurs or Line Infantry range….be nice to add some of these to my displays.

I move the Constable from time to time, just for a bit of fun.

Lesser spotted War of 1812. Lovely figures.

Oooh! Portrait mode on the iPhone looks good 😊
