          Do you still live in Bishops Stortford Richard? If so then I live nearby and close to in Little Canfield.

                Since the figure painting bug has hit me I've ordered all kinds of random stuff and these were the first to arrive. A D&D set with a low, medium & high level wizard. I don't know much about the game but there seems to be one that's passed out drunk too :upside:

                Should help me with consistency, getting them all looking reasonably similar...

                  I’m not sure, but every time I tried finding one for sale, I saw the asking price and postage and felt the total was too high

                    I think that one is meant to be the character waiting for a resurrection spell

                          I thought I had one for you and when I checked it wasn't the Verlinden Way #1 but the Verlinden #1 On Target. Sorry Jakko

                              Thanks Pard.....I'm try'n to cover my bases in case they decide to lock us down or some other foolishness in the future. I also scored 52 bottles of Testor's Modelmaster Enamels (out of production) day before yesterday but didn't post 'em up.......looking at bottles of paint is almost as boring as watching it dry!!! :tongue-out3:
