28mm Napoleonic French line infantry (Perry miniatures plastics)

These are Perry Miniatures plastic French Napoleonic line infantry. They are handily dispensed in 36 man units with a 6 man skirmisher screen. This is great for many of the "big battalion" wargame rule sets, like "In The Grand Manner".

Italeri Roman infantry (set number 6021)

There are many nice, and very cheap, plastics sets on the market. I've painted this set of Romans for someone in Australia

The building in the background was there so I could check the colour balance for the camera. I broke my Canon SLR camera, which will take months to get fixed, and have had to use my "holiday" camera. After a lot of experimentation I managed to get some decent pictures. At least the colours in the photograph are an accurate reflection of the colours on the figures.

Quick update on my (1/32nd scale) WW2 US Paratroops. I have finished the shoulder patches. These are for the 82nd Airborne.

WW2 1/32nd (54mm) Plastic Airfix Afrika Korps

These are some more of the figures I bought at the Tripples show in April in the UK.I had hundreds of Airfix figures when I was a child. I used to take them out into the garden and have mock wars across shrubberies; one force holding a rocky feature and another attacking it.
