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 [...]
BUF (2)
I’ve been planning on adding more troops to my VBCW project for a while, but I got sidetracked for a while with starting my own miniatures line. At the moment I don’t have anything to do but wait, so on to more painting. This is a pretty tame group, just a few more weak minds [...]
Settlers Defending (2)
This is my second group of Settlers Defending from the Galloping Major. His figures continue to get better and better. I enjoyed painting these guys even more than I enjoyed painting the last lot. The addition of the vests added a lot of detail and interest into the figures. I really like the way [...]
Judges (3)
This is my third set of Judges and they just keep getting more fun to paint. These are some of the most over-the-top figures I’ve painted yet. I mean the badge on the SJS Judge is rediculous, but for some reason with Judge Dredd around, it doesn’t seem to phase me. This group also contains [...]
Settlers Defending (1)
These guys are the first of my Anglo American Settlers from Galloping Major Wargames. There is another pack on my painting table as I write this. This group is all in shirt sleeves with a mottly looking assortment of equipment. The vast majority of the encounters in the FIW were border skirmishes between Indians and [...]
Reaper Supers
I’ve been on a bit of a Super Hero kick for a while now, it’s just that I’ve been so busy on other things that I haven’t had a chance to post these pics. I haven’t even painted for about three weeks now and that hasn’t happened since my twin daughters were newly born, I [...]
English Regulars, BUF, IRA, and Eddie
I have been wanting to paint this lot for some time. All of the models are from the Musketeer Miniatures Interwar and WW1 ranges, with one exception. The figure of Edward is a freebie given away at a British wargames show called Partizan. A very nice gentleman sent it to me, thank you again sir. [...]
Captain America and The Red Skull
I haven’t blogging recently, but I’ve been Super Busy! (get it?) Anyway, I received these guys quite some time ago, two I paid dearly for and the other two I received for doing a little web consulting. Since painting some Foundry Judge Dredd figures a while ago, I’ve been getting into painting loud costumes and [...]
Judges (2)
I’ve finally worked up some more Judges. After deciding that I was going to do them in pairs so I had something to show on a regular basis, I went a different way. I prepped and primed all four because it saved some work, then I thought, well I might as well paint all [...]
