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

Saturday, 13 September 2025

Some much needed basing… Dads Army.

Greetings…

There lovely chaps have been waiting to get their bases for a while…

It feels good to get them done… I quite enjoy basing so it was a nice easy but productive fix…


Dastardly German Paratroopers…


The brave Home Guard…



The (Suspicious Looking)Locals…

The figures are all from Wargames Foundry…


And they were all painted buy my very talented friend Mark Hargreaves from Over Open Sights.


Next up … A bit more Basing.

All the best.   Aly

  5. Fine looking troops and non-coms (perhaps) your basing shows them off a treat.

  8. Nice painting - had a look at this sight but I guess if you have to ask the price you can't afford it.

      I don’t think Mark is any more expensive than most professional painters…
