Consolidating My PROJECT.

It looks as though I'll be doing the SPANISH-AMERICAN War of 1889. I've ordered the Spanish and American figures for the project and they should arrive from the US this coming week. I'll have about 60 American Infantry and the same number for the Spanish- depending on how well  the painting goes I'll probably order some more figures.

 I'm very much looking forward to this 15mm Project- have not painted up 15mm figures in a very long time- decades in fact- though I should be OK with the 15mm.

Cheers. KEV.

Figures ORDER on the way from the USA.

 My 15mm Moro War 1889 figures were posted four days ago -which means I should receive the order in about eight days time. I'm really looking forward to painting up the figures - the paints and brushes are ready and I will begin the painting with the American troops.

HEALTH Update on KEV.

 Hi...I'm well- 68yrs, contented and happy. However, I use to weigh 98kg... and when I had my quadruple heart bypass back in 2020 I weighed 72kg- now in 2024 I weigh just 53kg. I've lost a lot of muscle mass in my legs and arms. I don't walk very well and am very unsteady on my feet- very slow and down to shuffling along...I usually choose to walk on flat areas if I can. We've had wooden and concrete ramps built at the back door and backyard pathways - we're having metal railings added to the front door area and the ramp areas in the back yard. Also we now have a toilet seat with handles to make it easier getting on and off the toilet.  I cannot lift anything heavy and bending down is also a problem. Otherwise I'm going OK.

Having mentioned my problems with Mobility - thankfully I still have my Hobby and can still enjoy painting miniature figures and making models- which is a blessing.

Stay well my Friends. Cheers. KEV.

Delay in receiving 15mm US and Spanish figures.

 Unfortunate that the Armchair General (US) does not have the figures I require in stock- there will be a delay whilst my orders are filled. However still very much looking forward to starting the Moro 1898 project.

The orders may arrive in the next three weeks- guess I'll have to be patient.

NEW Project- The MORO War of 1898.

I've decided to do the Moro War in 15mm using the Armchair General figures from the US.

The Americans.

I really like these 15mm figures- they have a certain charm.

I've ordered ten packets of figures with Spanish, Philipeno, Americans and some Artillery.

The order should take about three weeks to arrive here from the US.

I'm very much looking forward to doing this project.

Best Wishes. KEV.
