First Lamplighter being painted...

Started to paint Front Rank figure as Lamplighter today. I am reasonably pleased how things have gone so far but the photos are not too good- please bear with me. I shall try to take some better photos tomorrow...

Snow,updates and diverse plans...

Off work today due to snow- got train to school and was sent home by mobile from snowed in boss!
Due to energy levels/family commitments I have read little further into "Factotum" but hope to pick this fascinating book up again very soon. Worked a little upon the cardboard edifice which is moving forward very slowly. I hope to put paint to my Front Rank samples soonish and will attempt to do them/Lamplighters justice with my efforts...
I remain convinced "Sons of Blades..." will serve my needs well and look forward to tweeking them over Christmas. A few Lamplighters painted and a few nickers and playtesting can begin!

Last,but by no means least, I was thrilled to find Mr Cornish had left a comment upon this very blog. It is fantastic to have him here and he is more than welcome to pop back again!

Samples etc

My Front Rank samples arrived today and look like they have great lamplighter potential...

I am considering whether to give my Cothouse garrison a distinct coat colour or run with Imperial Red. I home to get paint to lead at the weekend.

I have worked a little on the Cothouse model and have decided to move the Door to the first floor which will have a set of stairs wrapped around the building leading up to it.
