New Galleries 6mm War of the Spanish Succession |

All done for the same client in three batches,
certainly a colourful set of armies roughly based on the units at Blenhiem. All figures from Baccus, painting, bases & flags by Tiny Tin Troops. |
As you can undoubtedly see, my photography skills are not that wonderful. I can never seem to get the lighting just as I want it and I should probably take more time getting the colour balance correct. I enjoy painting, I don't particularly enjoy photography !!
