Really happy how the miniatures for the small and compact Kirbekan 1885 project came out. More pictures on the blog in the link below.  Hope it is of some interest. https://rollaone.com/2018/12/03/kirbekan-1885-end-of-the-beginning-part-4/]https://rollaone.com/2018/12/03/kirbekan-1885-end-of-the-beginning-part-4/

Another amazing looking project! Is there no end to your madness? Why did you have to rebase your 7YW stuff? I thought your basing was compatible with pretty much all rule systems.

Glenn,  first and big thank you! Hope you are doing well! Now on to the questions. End to the mandess? I hope never.  Why I am rebasing the 7YW stuff?  I am not totally sure, but struggle to put up a big table without some trouble at the moment and want to have a set of tricorne toy soldiers on 40 by 20mm bases so I can do some reasonbly sized battles on the dining room table. I have hundreds of my GNW stuff on 60 by 30 bases and that is how I prefer them. But, I thought the 7YW stuff would get the cut down in this case, I I only have two small armies of Prussians and Russian. But part of me is already regreeting it all. Hey ho!

Yes thank you, I'm doing very well.

You know just for the record your painting style is top of the game. It's extremely rare that you can blow up a picture of a 6mm figure and see nothing but painted detail. You also have a fabulous gift for picking colours and matching them in a way that makes the figures just pop out at you. Bravo, well done!

I never have a rebasing problem. I've managed to transfer most of my collection over to 60x30 over the last I think 20 years. Yet I still have at least another 5,000 on older styles and shaped bases. I still plan to convert everything to 60x30 but in the never ending intrim I still have a few other options. Funny how a royal pain in the ass operation can work out to have some advantage.

Keep up the fight, always look forward to hearing about your projects and seeing your stuff.

Best regards,

Glenn

Glenn, thanks for your kind words - I really appreciate it. On the rebasing front I agree it is indeed a royal pain.   I will keep fighting  / Per
