Royal Artillery crew & 9pdr.

I have just completed the five Royal Artillery crew as you see below, just varnish required. They took a lot of painting to get them to this stage where I'm happy with them.  I'll move onto more British Cavalry next. I tried to match the existing gun and crew as closely as I could, the gun might just need a little more work.

This morning my wife has flown back to the UK for a week visiting friends and family, so as it's just me, the cat and the dog here I intend to get a good bit of painting done. Shaz has taken a fair few bits back with her that she won't be bringing back again so with spare room/weight in the suitcase I plan to get in some orders for hobby items that I need.  I need basing materials, static grasses, tufts etc in order to match the existing bases, and I'm looking at some large tree kits, possibly woodland Scenics. She will also be bringing back another 2.5kg of 40mm figures!
