Another Mixed Bag

 Here are a few items I have completed so far this month for three different collections. First up a bit of late medieval colour in the form of some Italian Wars Italian sword and buckler men. Perry Miniatures figures, hand painted shields on a bespoke base from the ever obliging Warbases.

Next up some boring old World War II stuff, more for the 1944 partisan brigade in the form of a 50mm mortar and crew. Britannia Miniatures via Grubby Tanks on you’ve guessed it a Warbases base.
Finally for the War of the Triple Alliance a mounted command figures for each side from Perry Miniatures of course on bases from you know who. First up a Paraguayan, next a Brazilian.

Tomorrow will see the first outing of the year for the First Carlist War collection, when we will, yes I know I have said I didn’t know what it could offer that Black Powder can’t, Valour and Fortitude! We will see.

Until next time………………..KBO

  3. A cracking mixed bag of lovely figures, the shields on the buckler men are quite superb and I must admit the two Triple Alliance command figures look great. Look forward to seeing your Carlist report one of my favourite conflicts.

    1. Thank you Norm. I was approached to do that in the past but it is so time consuming it would have been detrimental to my commission work.
