I keep a brief list of how long units take. I have just done 25 Crann Tara highlanders which only took 3 weeks. The previous unit took 2.5 months! <br /><br />So yesterday(a bank holiday here in the UK)I decided to prep up Minden Hanoverian regiment. I then discovered in the grenadier company of the previous regiment done last year I had painted 5 grenadiers and a drummer. This regiment's grenadier company is now left with 1 drummer, 2 officers, 2 NCO's and 1 grenadier. So much for my planning. Do I press ahead and just ignore it or is the chap upstairs telling me I should buy yet another regiment to rectify the mistake?<br /><br />Regards,<br />Guyguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02346804356499461777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33020106.post-16530496019386734672014-05-27T02:59:07.671-05:002014-05-27T02:59:07.671-05:00Lovely looking Standard Stokes.

Over the weekend I spent time cleaning and reorganizing my game area and then this evening I did some mindless painting of about 20 horses to try to get the mojo back.i hope it works.<br /><br />I like your new colours.

I like t..."oil can" (as the tinman said)<br /><br />I like those flags.<br /><br />I've been slower at painting than even my usual slowness, and haven't done much for a few week. Mostly due to outside circumstances. I need to get more figures prepped.<br /><br />Good luck getting back into painting, yourself!Fitz-Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510866929782142007noreply@blogger.com
