So, I’ve had these lads sitting around for some time. I currently have 120ish models from the Galloping Major and that includes NO doubles of the same figure. Pretty impressive. When I began to order from the Major, I made a small purchase and decided I love them then made a larger purchase, which happened [...]

Dark Judges Group Photo
I just realized I didn’t put up a group photo when I finished my Dark Judges last week. Here it is.
Judge Fire and Judge Fear – Dark Judges (2)
This is the second round of Dark Juges. I really like the Judge Fire figure but the Judge Fear figure leaves me a little cold. I wasn’t really inspired while working on it and it shows I think. I tried to strip the paint from Clix figure but that didn’t work, so I just primed [...]
Rolls Royce 1920 MK 1
I found a nice vehicle to accompany my British troops in the IWI or VBCW. It’s a very nice Rolls Royce 1920 MK1. It’s from Company B, but at the time that I ordered it they were out of stock and I had to order from Brigade Games. This was a tricky model to put together, luckily [...]
Fresh B’Hoys – IRA (3)
Just finished popping the paint on some new B’hoys. This is the second group of the Musketeer IRA Advancing models that I painted. I swear I ordered the IRA Shotguns pack, but I’ll roll with it. I’m going to need multiple packs of each before the end. I’ve tried to paint each group with [...]
Judge Death and Judge Mortis – Dark Judges (1)
I have been eying these models for a long time, but never really got around to ordering them. That is until I saw the awesome work going on over at Sho3box, he’s done a fantastic job showing off his work on various Judge Dredd models. It gave me the inspiration and push I needed to [...]
British Regulars (2)
I’m becoming quite addicted to these Musketeer Miniatures. It seems they are incredibly fun to paint, I just wish there was less cleanup involved in the process. It seems that the mold lines take quite a bit of work to get rid of, and there are some blemishes on many faces that I dare not [...]
Crossley Tenders
I’ve been watching these little beauties on other peoples photos for a while now. These trucks are called Crossley Tenders and they carted the Black and Tans and Auxies around Ireland during the Irish War of Independence. There’s lots of great footage of the troops packed into the back of these trucks and tooling around [...]
Fixing Up My Musketeer Miniatures
I have been quite taken with the Musketeer Miniatures line of figures for the Very British Civil War, they are one of only maybe two or three people out there making figures specifically for this somewhat unique setting. They are sculpted by Paul Hicks and quite simple to paint. My only problem so far has [...]
Canadian Militia in Capotes
These guys were great fun to paint. I didn’t know a thing about Miliciens or Canadian Militia when I started this project over a year ago, but I have found them very interesting since. The Galloping Major range seems to have embraced them with a passion as I now have 24 of them with completely [...]
