ALY MORRISON'S "BUTTERFLY" ADVENTURES IN THE WORLD OF WARGAMES AND TOY SOLDIERS

Tuesday, 15 May 2018

Partizan 2018... Yet more new toys.

Greetings...
Not long to go ...and still painting...


When I read that the Portuguese had cavalry attached to their divisional command...
I thought... now there's  a good idea for something a bit different...






Another nice looking ...Different unit...


When my friend Adrian turned 50 Alan Perry sculpted a portrait of him as his persona-The Beast of Bukhara- in a long running Back of Beyond campaign... And then had a bunch cast up...
Now that is what you call a present...


I have already painted a couple of versions up for Adrian





Rather poor photo's from my old phone...




I thought as he was taking time to help run the game on Saturday it would be nice to convert and paint up a new version...




The Honourable Lieutenant Adrian (The Beast) Shepherd R.N.A.S.


And last but by no means least yet another masterpiece by Mark Hargreaves...





There is lots more of Marks work over on his blog...

    Excellent cavalry additions to your Portuguese, Aly!
    What a thrill for a 50th birthday gift! We all should be so lucky.

    I am turning greener with every post that I won't see your game in person and will have to be satisfied with the photos I know you will post. Hope the show goes well.

      As he is running the game ... I imagine he will take on the persona of a cunning British spy... :-)

      See you on Sunday

      All the best. Aly
