The teenie men are coming along nicely. Sorry to hear you were unwell! Its always the way, Annual Leave become sick leave!
What a nice gift from David, I've popped over and subbed now.

[@leont66wargaming31]

Thanks buddy. Feeling a bit better now. It is always the case isn’t it lol.

Hope you're feeling better. Lovely gift.

Hope you feel better now mate and tell work to do one! Good progress none the less and a great gift from David.

Hope you’re fully recovered and back to full productivity. Look forward to seeing the Confederates finished. I’d use Epic scale figures if starting from scratch but I have some much 15mm kit, I really can’t justify starting again. I’m impressed with what you do with them though.

[@leont66wargaming31]

Thanks buddy. Yep I’m on the mend now.
I know what you mean. I have quite a bit of 28mm ACW so starting again in a different scale was/is hard to justify. I’ll probably sell the 28’s at some point and just stick with this scale

[@gunner678]

Wow nice gift. Lots going on there Leon! Always like the ammunition caissons! Just been painting Perry's ACW, mobile field forge. Very nice little project.

[@leont66wargaming31]

Ah yeah I’ve seen that. Nice model. Shame nobody does them in Epic scale.

@@leont66wargaming31 it wouldnt be too difficult to cobble one together actually, but yes it's a nice little thing.

[@leont66wargaming31]

I’ll have to have a think about it when I get towards the end of this project

[@gunner678]

@@leont66wargaming31 what scale is Epic again? I might have a go at making one for you, sounds like fun now ive suggested it lol. Let me know the scale. I have a visitor coming over from the UK next month, and he can post it to you when he gets back home. I think I still have your address from ages ago, i forget for what exactly. Cheers Leon, Matthew👍

[@leont66wargaming31]

It’s supposed to be 12.5mm but it’s more like true scale 15mm.
Thanks Matt

[@BattleBunkerHQ]

Great update Leon, lots of hobby going on. Look forward to seeing them all done especially the Austrians. Sorry to hear you were unwell, always here if you need a chat mate 👍

nice one Leon, looking forward to seeing the cart and horses painted, look like they will make a good diorama, nice progress on the Epic ACW, and i thought you had finished your Austians (as if) lol

[@leont66wargaming31]

Thanks buddy. Yes I’m thinking of making it into some sort of diorama. Bloody Austrians have no end lol

You're going hard on the epic stuff. Take care of yourself, dude. So typical you have holidays and you get a bit ill.

Hi Leon, what were the pike figures with the horizontal pikes?

[@leont66wargaming31]

Hi Steve, they’re “Peter Pig” miniatures. I replaced the bendy metal pikes with solid metal
