Helen of Toy Comic Book Soldier Project
Hey Friends
I have had an urge to paint up a diorama of the Helen of Toy, American Revolution set. I am thinking 25/28mm scale but for the life of me, I cannot seem to find any kneeling, firing, regulars. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks
Chris

First off a hearty thank you to Russ from Old Glory 25’s for just up and sending me all the miniatures I needed as well as a single cannon and mounted officer. This was such an amazing gesture.
I have a lot of his figures in my collections and now I have more. Thank you Old Glory 🙂
Old Glory 25’s
Well I have the “Mericans” all based and primed white. I started block painting them in batches. i am using some new brushes I get from Amazon and of Liquitex Flow Aid. I have painted maybe three hours and got the primary colors blocked in.
Now to let them dry overnight.
More Soon

OK the “Merricans” are nearly done. I am attaching a picture of them below.
I am starting to think about the British side. As I think I have written they all are wearing a brass miter style hat. Old Glory sent me enough hat men to do them but at the moment I think that is cheating. Hmm, I ordered up a 1:72 set of plastic figures from HAT. They arrived but are just to small.
The pondering continues.

By the way please have a look at my AWI skirmish rules “Light Bobs” here >>>.
