28mm Foundry ACW Confederate Prisoners with Union Escorts and.......

..........a drunk on duty!

Lovely set of figures from Foundry, little use to the game other than eye candy but what does that matter, the less useful the set is to the actual game the more I seem to like it!

  9. I think having ones that are just eye candy helps too. It makes things look more realistic and what have you. Plus you always need at least one drunk on duty. It makes everything more fun and there's always at least one drunk on duty in real life.

  10. great work Fran, that one guy in the keg, very strange, reminds me of a toy i had as a young kid, you could pull up the keg and the guys meat sprung out lol, i have no idea what a five year old was doing with such a toy.

  19. You seem to be out of your painting funk Fran. Nice brushwork and the photography is really good as well.

    I'm collecting the Foundry Orcs right now. I have baby Orclings riding on Dinosaurs and they're so cute. If you've time have a look at this: Uddanesh Longbellows and The Mighty Fart Horn

  24. 'Converted' most of this set into figures usable in units. They make interesting figures in among the rest of the line.

  31. I always like these "little use to the game other than eye candy" figures. You give them a lot of character, and that's pretty cool.

  32. When you finish beating your opponents in your next ACW bash, drop the guards and the guy in the barrel down and tell them that's how they're being escorted from the battlefield. And gloat!

    Great figures, Fran!

  38. This is considered the most common design and almost usually in black.
    Tribal tattooing has experienced a reoccurrence inside
    the past decade or so. It's amazing sometimes, but something that looks like it's
    chin-up inside a online advertising are the identical cookie-cutter websites the many time.
    They is most likely the almost tattoos that happen to be cool now and it is gonna be cool in ten and
    50 decades. Now, you could find a lot more tattoo artists practicing their craft as professional
    designers.
