Years and years ago ( yes, you've all done this) I bought a couple of boxes of figures and put them in a cupboard where they sat ( on the Lead Mountain) for over a decade. Then in a burst of painting inspiration I took them out a few weeks ago and thought...yes...now I want to paint them.
The figures were Warlord Games Polish Winged Hussars- for me not the easiest to paint and to be honest I'd always figured I might send them to a pro to get them done...but in a fit of impulsiveness i decided to give them a go.
It's funny how we spend all this money on stuff...just to put them away for 'later use'.
So as my GNW war collection is growing I have these based to fight my Ottomans for the Renaissance but the frontage can double up for the GNW.
The Napoleonic Brits were from Front Rank.
Why buy them? I don't know, I just liked them.
Do I have any other British Napoleonic 28mm? No.
Do I have any Napoleonic 28mm? No
Do I intended building an army? Not really.
Do i just want to spend money and paint them.? Well..yes.
Why? ...well...I stupidly bought a book on Waterloo, and another one of the War of 1812......just had the urge. So they came out of the Lead Mountain.
