Just for the purpose of Illustration.



Not a war-gamer
 Gratuitous shot of Sammy aside, the Teenage Mutant Ninja turtle is purely for - ahem - illustrative purposes.
Traffic Jam!
Those Grant-esque units have quite a foot-print when deployed in line!

Comardo Dragoons
 Particular favourites of mine.

Alzheimer Light Infantry
 Perhaps a little overpoweringly strong for any period? They should be a jolly nuisance, but not a battle-winner!

Wonderful photos, Greg! Thank you. You know, I believe I read somewhere about a Ninja Turtle Guard regiment that has been lost annals of history. Your son looks interested too. Perhaps a budding wargamer in another year or so?

Best Regards,

Stokes

Some fine-looking regiments of Spencer Smiths there, thank you for the photos.

I particularly admire the light infantry in the last picture, the black and red combo is very striking. I always found that a full Grant 24 + 4 light infantry unit, with the men 3" apart in open order, took up an awful lot of room on the table.

Young Mr Olley's painting, those last ones, Steve. I can take no credit! They took up enough room when just an inch or so apart!
