An old school sort of day

 It began by reading this splendid blog post over coffee-

And continued thus-

Looked out these Airfix Ancient Britons from the shed. This is the colour l recall from my youth. Sadly these have plastic rot and will need to be disposed of.

Looked out these from the shed also and took them off their tired thin card bases. Wondered if this broken hollow cast elephant might be deployed with them…

I ordered the Airfix’s magazine below from eBay recently, it arrived pm.

Interesting series of articles from Bob O’Brien on converting Airfix figures.

Some examples of conversions, even mentioning Banana Oil!

An interesting review from the same magazine re WRG rules. The magazine cover below.

Currently getting the Minifigs ready for the tabletop and their newly acquired elephant too. I envisage them to be some sort of desert raiders , a thorn in the flesh of many.
