Alternative Dead Flowers

Didn't use this figure in the last competition, used one of Robin Hood's Merry Men instead. The flower in the background don't suffer anymore. I've kept it to remind me that I shall NEVER EVER have flowers at my office. At home they are healthy and allright most of the time and they have never reached this mummified state. Fig is going to be used in Gata Forest, don't know which side yet.

Alternative Little Drummer Boy

This leetle fella got at least 16 votes in a competition at Benno's Figures. I think that was my best result ever. Wasn't happy with the background here so I took others. Some with the vinyl-collection in the background (which I didn't use) and some with a book cover with the Gettysburg-monument on (which I used). Painted about 15 years ago and stored in a box since then.

Time to hibernate!

Unfortunately it is not possible for me hibernate, but I would like to. Last winter was very close to break me and the missus, it started in December. Now it is NOVEMBER and looks like this! Can only hope that it will disappear before April. Blah! :-(

One more from Prince August

This is one of Prince August's more common figs. A GNW-Swede. And this is ANCIENT! Moulded when I was about 10 or 11 years old, but painted just about 2 years ago. A flat guy and some people have ARMIES of these. Don't have many of these moulds, just this one and a marching grenadier. For a while you could even buy moulds for castles (gypsum/plaster) for these guys. Don't know how many medieval castles they faced though.

Prince August's Napoleonics

Many many many years ago (middle 1980s) I bought some of Prince August's Napoleonic moulds. Prussian infantry and French artillery. A little stiff poses, but you can make how many you want. These are the ones I painted (have maybe ten unpainted too).

Something else

A while ago (pretty long ago) I was cleaning the cellar and found some old stuff painted long long ago. Airfix Cavalry and some swoppits in the background. And some other Airfix too.

Working working working

But not on this battle. Found some genuin Coats-of-arms at a Danish site and going to paint some of the figs like that. But I also work on some other stuff. Sigh, why don't I just stick one thing and finish it? Now I have A LOT of stuff to finish instead. But it is fun and relaxing to paint (just hope the missus finally can understand that).
