I really didn’t get as much done as I wanted this evening. I painted bits white on both the horses and riders re glued a lance arm that was starting to get wobbly and then painted the bone and manes on the mounts…

I had a dry run with the riders in situ, and although one was a very tight fit, they all went on and stayed on…

Having had a look at one of the horses, I reckon it is a recast, if not there was a problem with quality control, it wasn’t that it had flash on, something I don’t see that often with Alternative Armies, but the fact is that one half of the horses skull was a bit in front of and slightly higher than the other. Now that they have the bone colour on, it is not as visible. I was going to photograph it, but now can’t be sure whether I imagined it or not

Tomorrow I will crack on with these and see how far I get.

Supposedly tomorrow I am getting a visit from a senior manager in the education service, as he has already cancelled twice then we will have to see if this is the case or not.
