Leib Garde & Light Dragoons

Not done a great deal recently apart from chill out and watch DVDs (Wild Geese, Magnificent Seven,  In Search of the Dark Ages...), mainly because my angiogram found a magnificent 95-99% blockage! So the wife has wrapped me in cotton wool until I get a stent fitted on Monday. Or two, as another artery is at 75%. I rarely do things by halves. Does explain an awful lot of the health problems I’ve been having this year, but it means I have to put up with my crappy knee for a while longer.

Anyway, my painting therapy (much nicer than Glyceryl spray) has resulted in this:


I’ve also managed to make progress on updating the Warrior British Light Dragoons:


John sent me the updated Heavies today and they have come out rather well; worth all the aggravation they caused me. Thankfully the Lights have been a lot easier because I don’t want anything winding me up at the moment!

    1. Cheers Matt. Luckily I have an excellent GP and a superb cardio unit in Salisbury, so all will be well.

  2. Lovely looking Leibgarde. The Saxons are a joy to paint, you did a great job in creating them and I am sure that John is getting quite a few of them cast for oders. Good luck on Monday, Health is the important thing, we are not getting any younger. All the best!!

  4. My order of a Warrior Saxon army arrived yesterday. I must say that you have done a fine job with these figures Jef. I hope I can do them justice with my paint brush.
