This week I received some much-needed reinforcements from the Perrys. I must have already gone through at least 20 boxes of their Wars of the Roses plastics, and here are almost as many, again. They got the order out really quickly; kudos to them, great customer service. I also bought some metals, not shown.
On Wednesday we had a power cut, and I took this atmospheric shadow photo of my current painting project, by torchlight, silhouetted against a sofa in the background. It looks very much like a grainy 1930's movie. I'll take a proper pic of the minis, next week.
The weather round here has alternatively been rainy and sunny, and consequently the plants are doing really, really well. Above, red cabbages forming nice heads; below, the potato (5' high) and spinach bed. This gardening lark is very rewarding; who knew?
This is our first cauliflower- with Perry mini for scale purposes! Consumed, yesterday night, in a cauliflower cheese (the cauli, that it, not the Perry).
Finally, here's a better shot of the winner's trophy from the recent online tournament- now flocked and in the post to Andy Lyons. It's on a Warbases counter, so super as a victory medal counter.

Veggies going really well!
Looks like you got a great hoard of Veg in the garden, and happy to see your work baring fruit. Also happy to hear that you didn't eat that poor yeomen.
Me, too- he's a metal!
Nice gigantic cauliflower! I laugh much with the comment :)
The Winner figure is great!
I like Cauliflower, but I like the Trophy figure better!
When you'll give to us the long awaited emendments for the renaissance? I can't wait for them!😄
Oh yeah, not the best for teeth or digestion.
Terrific grainy photo and amazing veg. I wish mine had been so successful.
That's a big pile of plastic! Love the 1930's pic and nice veg!
Best Iain
Ah, but did you eat the caulifower leaves? Steamed and stir-fried; yum. And a nice trophy. And I like the idea of the victory medal counter!
Great stuff Simon , look forwards to seeing the figures get some paint on them and the cauliflowers get some cheese on them.
