Finished off another box for John and a 6mm Crimea Camp scene.

Today I finished off the second half of what we call 'John's previous box' (as there is another large box waiting to be opened!). The final 16 infantry were by Newline Designs, Ottoman Command pack, Engineers, Albanian Infantry and Anatolians, all very colourful and well animated metal 20mm figures. IN addition there are three units each of 12 figures of Russian Streltsi infantry with muskets (plastic - various makes but mostly Strelet), more Turkish Command figures from the plastic set by Mars and 8 mounted Portuguese Dragoons by Strelets.











Next up are Simons 10mm Fantasy Figures, starting with the mounted Knights, then I have a couple more 15mm ECW foot regiments for Graham followed by two more WSS cavalry units for Tony so all ticking over nicely - thanks guys for all your support.

I also put together this Crimean war camp scene for DBN - Supply wagons arrive at a British camp escorted by a detachment of Scots Greys as Turkish infantry look on in anticipation with tobacco to trade! All Irregular Miniatures bits and bobs, just waiting on a few more bell tents to finish the Russian camp.

Really must have another go at that paper flag, this was the third attempt!
