Weirdly following this post I sat down and painted some 15mm figures for the first time in ages and they left me cold.<br /><br />I think the issue is they just don't have the personality and instant recognisability that the larger figures have. Saying that a lot of the newer 28mm stuff leaves me utterly indifferent. While they are technically superior to the old, slightly wonky sculpts of years gone by, they seem to utterly lack character and personality!<br /><br />I suspect that whatever I ended up going for, it wouldn't be quite right!SpacecowSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05526363535587059611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859305602092480700.post-64297114898435230432023-01-20T16:56:57.437+00:002023-01-20T16:56:57.437+00:00Bill is a great character too!

Sadly I gave them all away years ago.<br />In the same vane have you read the "DNA Cowboys" trilogy that would make a good wargame.<br /><br />Willz.Tiberian generalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12751123635695247896noreply@blogger.com
