Nice review, it's great to put everything out on display like that, but no, project not over - there's always just one more unit, or a 'must buy' spotted on ebay...
Marvellous - a credit to you sir ! Huzza I say ! , Tony
Splendid - absolutely marvellous. It was a great privilege to see them in action!
Xaltotun is quite right. The dogs may bark, but the caravan and thus the project, moves on. Parading is an integral oart of collecting these lovely old figures, how smart and eager they look n their pristine finery.
Maybe you should have a bit of a theme such as building each nation to a certain size, or a paricular orbat. Need I point out that you still have the Peninsula to do and lots of interesting allied units?
Splendid display- a credit to you Ian - it's been quite awhile though now near completion you are reaping the rewards of a job well done and an interest in Hintons that has endured time itself! Regards. KEV.
Fantastic sight Ian, I really admire your dedication to the project and collection.
Nice to see your lovely collection on review
that is a very cool collection!
Now, this is the sort of scene that does the heart good. 'Wonderful' seems a understatement.
Best Regards,

A magnificent work of art, Ian.
Nice to see the jolly jack tars getting an outing. I've got some 15mm ones but they rarely make it out of the box.
A stirring sight! It brings back fond memories already!
*drool*
What an inspiring display.
Happy to see the heroic Swiss battalion back in the line. My salutations to them. And the Silesians must surely have graduated beyond postal executive status?
Nigel - I'm thinking the Silesians must be at least 'B' grade now!
Ooh the Guard grenadiers will be down to B then?
I don't think so Roy - I'm thinking of introducing A++ for them!
