The last of the catch up posts from the Analouge Painting Challenge you'll all be pleased to here, Fran!!
These were posted in the final minutes of the Challenge giving me 432 points to add to my winning total of 4940!
I was once again accused of sandbagging by Curt (now a Honorary Reject, Canadian Chapter). and being a cheeky git, which of course are both absolutely correct!
In this post are 24 batteries of Russian artillery for the Russo-Japanese War, why Postie wanted this much is a mystery to me and him too probably???
There are 12 batteries made by Old Glory and another 12 by Irregular minis, they all still need a splash of ink, but Postie won't here of it?????
Have a great weekend, I will I'm stuck at work on nights painting and trying to fit a little bit of work in on the side!!

Saw these, and I remember the outcry of sandbaggery of the lot you put down. Nice job, but have to say more along the lines of .. why WOULDN'T you want 24 batteries of artillery?!?
ReplyDeleteWhy not indeed!!!!
DeleteIndeed I bet the wagon train to support that lot must be huge. Nice work Ray

ReplyDeleteI would not like to be on the recieving end of those!!
Wow massive artillery.

Impressive battery there Ray!
ReplyDeletePostie certanly likes his guns! It was a lot of fun watching you unload so much painted lead at the end of the contest, you entered more in the last few days than I did all contest
ReplyDeleteIan
I worked me bloddy socks off!!!
DeleteLovely work but thank the painting gods that this is finished now!
ReplyDeleteThought you'd like that!!
DeleteLovely stuff Ray :)
ReplyDeleteFran - I'm sure there's more stuff he would have used for the sandbagging, but hadn't quite finished in time ;)
There was loads half or nearly finished!
Deletethey look great in white. :D
ReplyDeleteLooking real good. Just imagine what the gun powder 8and worst of all counter battery fire) will do to those white uniforms! :-(
ReplyDeleteThey just might get a little muddy????
DeleteOhh lots... and nicely painted.
ReplyDeleteFantastique, it's a good work !
ReplyDeleteGreat painting Ray. Just glad I'm not facing that lot!!
ReplyDeleteStill not sure of the lack of ink, but these guys look great regardless.
ReplyDeleteThey do need inking, that's for sure!!
DeleteVery impressive looking.
ReplyDeleteBlimey!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteJason
Great stuff Ray and no doubt I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that!!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Me neither!!!
DeleteHoly crap. That's a lot of little dudes.
ReplyDeleteCool beans.
This is an impressive display Ray. If Postie hadn't of asked for so many you wouldn't have won. Thanks to Postie for Rays victory!
ReplyDeleteSuperb in a mind boggling way! How many? Have a great weekend Ray.
ReplyDeleteImpressive, really impressive...don't want to be in front of you Ray!
ReplyDeleteI say thats one hells of a lot of guns, just how big is the army?
ReplyDeletemassive!!!!!
DeleteIncredible!
ReplyDeletePresumably Postie now has enough figures for both sides to fight the entire war on a 1 to 1 scale??
ReplyDeleteSo when are these guys going to see their guns in action??
Soon hopefully!!! And yes, he's probably enough for a 1:1!!
DeleteWay.. that's impressive looking.
ReplyDeleteVery nice work but you're still a shady, sandbagging, cheeky bugger. (mind you I say that with fondness and respect)
ReplyDelete-Curt
LOL!!
DeleteA massive amount of work, Ray. Will it never end!
ReplyDeletevery nice. quantity is what makes it so awsome. a little mud and grime should bring that quality up as well
ReplyDeleteThis will truly make a Grand Battery! I wouldn't march in front of them, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteAn impressive amount of artillery
ReplyDeleteI now know what it must of felt like for the Light Brigade, looking down the barrels of that many Russian guns.
ReplyDeleteFantastic work, Ray. The painting, basing (quality and quantity) never fails to impress and inspire. Best, Dean
ReplyDeletewow white uniforms...they must have been a bugger to clean
ReplyDelete24 bateries? And all of them with white uniform... You are GREAT, Ray.
