40mm AWI American Militia

After painting the 40mm AWI British mounted British General and his ADC I had a rummage around and found some more Front Rank 40mm AWI American militia that I have had lurking in the recesses for several years. I painted these and put them with the couple of militia I already had painted up. Here they are.

VIKING RAIDERS!!

Here are some of my Viking raiding party.  Made up of mostly old Citadel Norse figures and Black Tree figures, they are a wild and mad bunch- especially those blokes in wolf skins.  There is even a Gandalf conversion to a real Viking hero!

40mm AWI Mounted British Officers

Here are the two Front Rank 40mm AWI British mounted officers, the General (left) and his ADC (right). I finished the ADC today. They are really wonderful figures and truly a delight to paint. 

40mm BRITISH GENERAL AWI

Here is the first figure for the New Year. It is a 40mm scale British General from the American War of Independence line by Front Rank miniatures. I finished painting this fellow yesterday. I also  purchased a mounted British ADC but have not yet painted that mini. These 40mm figures by Front Rank are beautifully crafted and are an absolute delight to paint.

Here's to 2013 and to an even better 2014!

Here's a little figure I've painted up in the last couple of days.  He was a Christmas gift from Tigerzouave.  I was quite pleased with how it came out.  It's amazing the difference glasses make to your painting. 

2013 has been a bumper year for the Land of the Lead.  I would like to thank our 142 followers and everyone who has contributed, viewed and shared the hobby we all love.  

With 458 posts, and members from all over the planet, the Land of the Lead has really grown.  So what are we looking forward to in 2014?  Easy- more and more of the same!  More miniatures and more games!

XMAS GREETINGS

Happy Xmas and a prosperous New Year to all the LOTL bloggers out there. Olaf says: May the dice Gods look favorably upon you this festive season and bless your dice with glory in the year to come!
