Evening all. Only my second post and I hope it works! I recently came back to painting miniatures after a break of nearly a quarter of a century. Anyway, I have started putting together a collection of figures of all the antecedent regiments of the modern Rifles (my Regiment). So far I've got the Bloody 11th, 43rd, 5/60th and the 95th. still quite a way to go! Watch this space. Windy out.

Very nice. 40mm's are a joy to paint I find. |

It is still somewhat difficult to get one's head around the "Bloody Eleventh" being something to do with the Rifles
but there again, such anomalies no alas abound.. |

Haha! Tell me about it! I was 11 years a Devon and Dorset and then we amalgamated with the RGBW, LI and the Greenjackets to form the Rifles, and we all had to learn Light Drill over night! I still can't do it properly after seven years. |

I fear the referendum is the only thing that stops the Taffs being amalgamated with whatever is left in Scotland. Mind you – it might be easier just to amalgamate the remaining Scots regiment into Fiji's armed forces! |
