Happy New Year & the 2nd Bonus round


I feel a little like that this morning......
Wishing you all out there in Blogland a very Happy New Year.
I'm glad 2014 is over and look forward to a better 2015!!!


This is my entry into the 2nd bonus round (Mount & Rider)
It wasn't my planned entry, I started painting a couple of 15mm French
Generals for my NYW collection, then found I had no matching MDF bases.
So a quick switch to this fine looking fellow, who's one of Posties old unused  Reiver Castings
figures, afraid he's just a basic paint as I was running out of time.
He may or may not get a wash and brush up  at a later date???


He's up against some very stiff opposition, so if you haven't already you can get 
on over to Curt's Blog and caste a vote for your favourite.

  16. Happy New Year Ray, though I suspect it will be tinged with a little sadness at "losing" the grumpy one.
