Welcome to Truls Fjel

Just saying "Hi" and thanks for joining.  Annoyingly, Blogger is doing its thing of not telling me if you have a blog. It does that sometimes!

Gunfreak's Apartment of War

...which you can find here.  He is well known on The Miniatures Page for Napoleonics, and has recently taken the plunge into Republican Romans.  Do go and have a look, they are tremendously nice.

On the painting tray: December 2011

November was not a great month so far as painting is concerned.  I finished a dozen slingers and managed to get part of the way through the other stuff that has been on the tray for a while now.  Currently I have 24 Spartans half-completed, plus the 1/12 scale Airfix figure of Anne Boleyn.  I also have another 32 Hoplites that Willie gave me.  These are very uniform indeed, and have been painted up as Spartans.  I'll have way too many of those if I just keep this lot the same, so I think I'll do a bit of work on them to convert them to generic Hoplites.  I am owed some holiday time from work, so hopefully that will make up for November before we reach the end of the year.
