2025 Painting Summary

This year has flow by, 2025 has had it's ups and downs but my painting has been steady and here is my inventory of painted figures for this past year. Once again a lot of the output was achievable by the Swansea Club's Paint and Chat evenings on a Tuesday night (is it worth starting one ourselves?). Commission work and much of my own:. I haven't posted anything in 2025, and I may well create a FB page as loading pictures is easier on FB than here! 

The vast majority has involved getting my 15mm Ancient/ Medieval armies into some semblance of order for my preferred rule set "Sword & Spear".

15mm - foot painted - 1080..........15mm Mounted Painted - 240, also rebased about 6 complete armies!

20mm -  A few additions to my WWII collections - 88 Figures, 35 Vehicles, 1 Aircraft and 16 buildings ( with ruined version underneath, see below)

28mm - 651 foot and 67 mounted figures in total, for Lord of the Rings, Colonial, HYW, Vietnam, Cowboys and weird TV stuff. 

A few examples below

Some of these below were bought painted and added to my already painted then rebased!

2024 Painting Summary

 Just been going through my inventory of painted figures for 2024 and I was surprised it was not more. Most of these were helped by the Swansea Club's Paint and Chat evenings on a Tuesday night (is it worth starting one ourselves?). Commission work and some of my own:

28mm foot figures - 490 - A selection of some of the figures!

   

28mm Mounted - 60 - A selection of some of the figures!

28mm Animals (ie: no rider) - 40 - A selection of some of the figures!

15mm foot - 300 - A selection of some of the figures!

    

15mm Mounted - 60 - A selection of some of the figures!

  

Buildings mostly 28mm - 30 - A selection of some of the buildings!

Well, that's the sort of thing I have been painting in 2024. 2025 will bring a lot of the same, no new projects planned (at the moment). Have a great New Year all. 

The Men Who Would be Kings - Regular Naval Forces

 I have titled this post as "Regular Forces", as it is to be a multi Nations Force, although the majority will be British.

Majority of the figures units were given to me by a friend, Aled Charles, who had no use for them. Some were painted, some not. Apart from the German Sailors, the figures and support weapons are from Redoubt Enterprises (Now available from Grubby Tanks) 

German Sailors, one full unit and eight figures. I will at some point purchase the extra four figure required to finish the unit! These ere painted by Aled. 

The next unit was a part finished British Sailor unit, once again donated and most painted by Aled. I matched the paint scheme for five figures to finish it off.

My next unit were painted as Royal Marines.

Some Support weapons

Krupps 75mm

Gardner Gun (Minus Magazine, Missing)

Gatling Gun

Commander

I had some Cannibals, so I painted them up for Tribal Slavers!
