General discussion and updates on my collection of toy soldiers, being mainly Old Britains and some New Britains. Plus other makers. Special thanks and in memory to Johnnie Somers (RIP), whom passed on a large part of what you'll see to me.

Gaul or Ancient Briton War Chariot
Metal casting was purchased off ebay. Painted gloss. It is a really great casting - and I really enjoyed painting it - possibley the flesh colour tones are wrong...alas
Boudica Being Whipped
I purchased this set of metal castings of ebay. I have painted gloss.......I would add without a doubt the flesh colours do appear wrong - more so in real life. My first attempt also at ever painting a semi naked lady....and the Queen of them all!
Boudica' War Chariot
I purchased this metal casting off ebay - maybe a year or two ago. As can be seen, I have painted it gloss style - spear a little wonky - all my fault (or my kids!) Interesting set and subject - I like it.
Indian Musical Band
I have recently finished painting these metal castings I purchased 5 or more years ago from a London Show. I had kept the paper for the painting - but had not kept the Regt they represent - so on that score sadly....I lose. Painted using Humbrol Gloss.
