Well its time for the first Bonus round entry.
Curt's once again killing me with his choices, this one is "Flight"
Now my problem is I don't own any periods past the year 1763 so its a tad difficult
finding something that could fly?
So its lateral thinking time again?
So its lateral thinking time again?
After a rummage in one of the many unloved and forgotten boxes of unpainted lead I found these
I think they're old Gripping Beast figures, although I can't find them on their website?
They were in a bag with some GB civilians, so who knows?
So here's my entry 12 Geese!
Is anyone else having trouble commenting on blogs recently?
I have to press publish several times before my comments posted?
They are awesome, Ray, and look splendid on those bases too. Nice thinking, with the beaks appearing suitably orange too :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers for the kind words Simon.
DeleteGood idea. And yes, several clicks to publish.
ReplyDeleteThanks George, I think it may be working again?
DeleteLook great. Yes I'm also having issues posting comments
ReplyDeleteDamn blogger, drives you mad!!!
DeleteGreat idea for flight. Re blogs, just press once and wait, it takes about 15 seconds. It seems to have been like this for 4 - 5 days now. Just pretend you are back in the days of 56k modems :-)
ReplyDeleteAh that's better my old Amiga 500.....
DeleteThey look great. Love to see you use them in battle. Geese bites do hurt!
ReplyDeleteMe too, this could be Killer Attack Geese?
DeleteSimply the best~! Love it :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you approve Michal.
DeleteWonderful job, superb and realistic, I can hear them from France! And yes, many trouble, I have to wait a long time after writing my comments...
ReplyDeleteDrives you mad!!!!
DeleteSure!
DeleteBut it works now!
DeleteWhat a pleasure!
DeleteThose are really cool Ray, very nice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rodger.
Delete"Flight" as a theme was so open. As you have shown birds, but you could also do Dinosaurs or Insects or even flying fish or squirrels. And that is just keeping it in the natural world. Historically Chinese kites/lanterns were used by armies as early as 300 Anno Domini or you could leap forward to Leonardo Davinci and some of his drawings. all the way up to modern jet fighters or beyond into sci fi.
ReplyDeleteTaking nothing away from the birds though as they do look good.
Some good ideas Clint, I should have spoken to you a few weeks ago!
DeleteYes, struggling to comment also. Though I, now, only press the button once, then refresh the page and it has worked every time for me.
ReplyDeleteSo they're not Wild Geese then, if you don't go beyond 1763. No matter, as they do look good.
These are wild Geese, but not THE Wild Geese.
DeleteExcellent choice, they look cool! :-D
ReplyDeleteCheers Utgaard!
DeleteYour version of the Wild Geese? Looking good!
ReplyDeleteAs for commenting, yes, commenting has become a slow process. Very good to read that it is not isolated to me. Publishing once works but takes time to submit.
I think its back to normal again, thank gawd!
DeleteVery cool birdies, Ray! As far as blogger issues, when I post a comment, it takes a very long time for it to "take." Still better than awhile back when my comments would double-post on some folks' blogs. Oh well, can't complain about the price for using blogger :)
ReplyDeleteYeh I kept getting double post syndrome too!
DeleteNice one Ray! ;o)
ReplyDeleteCheers
Matt
Cheers Matt.
DeleteGuard dogs you can eat! Great job on the guards and their bases.
ReplyDeleteWhat could be better Jay?
DeleteOne can never have to many foul, er fowl, beasties running around a table. Scenario rule - let them take off in someone's face, and lose a turn of movement from the distraction!
ReplyDeleteYep, they can be used so many different ways.
DeleteWorst dogs ever, but great geese!
ReplyDeleteHa ha, cheers Joe.
DeleteWell worth a gander :-) To get them did you have to give a Down Payment? Down...??..No?
ReplyDeleteOh gawd! Help!
