That's just the 28mm stuff, I'm not even going to start on the other scales.

Nice painting! I especially like the infantry. Are they Victrix, or Perry?

Victrix I believe.

I like both. I like them even better because they are virtually interchangeable.

Some people have sued the Perry and Victrix as 'conversion kits' for their metals, giving useful additional gear and head swaps.

Thanks.

Yes they are the Victrix Center Company (have some flankers to paint) with the "Penninsular" heads

I've got some Perry French on order to do.

Very nice indeed, both the ships and troops. Nice to see you are also mad enough to rig the Tumbling Dice 1/2400 ships. I do mine too and it really finishes them off nicely. Have just posted some of mine on a separate thread . .hope all our Naval fellows enjoy!
