Thanks for the suggestion.
F...Jeff -- Good point. Thanks for the suggestion.<br /><br />Fitz -- Yep, I agree. There's plenty of scope for various approaches. Thanks for your continued interest and support.<br /><br />Martin -- Ditto. And I'll actually keep using my plastic Revell regiments of infantry and cavalry (shudder) along side my metals for some time to come.<br /><br />Paul -- Yes, and my wife has even given his a small taste of a frozen Starbuck's espresso frapuccino. . . and he LIKED it! We've created a caffeine monster I fear. Just the smell of the java bug animates him!WSTKS-FM Worldwidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173042438761572040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33020106.post-14822661890759635432010-06-21T06:37:36.090-05:002010-06-21T06:37:36.090-05:00Glad to read that you're starting your heir on...Glad to read that you're starting your heir on the coffee at such a young age.

The miniatures we use in our games are just 3-D representations so we can enjoy the spectacle of brightly uniformed troops coming to grips, while they obey our commands. The make and model make little difference. I understand that there are those with souls so dead, known as boardgamers, that employ what we would consider just the base (GASP!) of our miniatures.<br /><br />As far as the Hussar Uniform Question goes; the brighter and more outrageous the better. Let the locals think the Circus has come to town!Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440393996804815125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33020106.post-51128441742441432732010-06-20T16:41:24.301-05:002010-06-20T16:41:24.301-05:00It never ceases to amaze me how partizan or zealou...It never ceases to amaze me how partizan or zealous some people can get over choices of figures (or other aspects of gaming). To each their own. I always enjoy seeing the variety of approaches to the hobby.<br />Happy painting!Fitz-Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510866929782142007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33020106.post-27847681669506059862010-06-20T15:42:52.479-05:002010-06-20T15:42:52.479-05:00If I might offer a suggestion regarding the Minden...If I might offer a suggestion regarding the Minden Hussars . . .<br /><br />Avoid green as a uniform color. Pick something that will contrast well with your green playing surface instead.<br /><br />The hussars are such nice sculpts that you should pick uniforms that will make them "stand out" on your lovely green table top.<br /><br />Meanwhile enjoy your painting time.<br /><br /><br />-- JeffBluebear Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595975572873838050noreply@blogger.com
