Been a good 15 years since I've painted one of these, I still suck at it!  :laugh:

You should of seen my LOTR ones. Big names I painted, but the standard soldiers....It was more like dipping them in the paint pot  :laugh:


Looks good though, I never had a steady hand for them.

Cheers, I used to do it back in the early 90's as well. I seem to be able to paint them much better now than I used to. Think I must have more patience than I did back then.

Just finished my 2nd one, a bit better than the 1st.

Never used to play in the shop, had a 6' x 4' board at home and used to play my bro and some of my mates on that. It was converted from when it was for my train set when I was a little kid.
