American War of Independence


Ever since I moved to Japan my painting focus sifted from Fantasy and the American War of Independence to  Napoleonics. Of course this doesn't mean that I lost my interest in fantasy or the AWI but I am beginning to realise that a miniature collection in 28mm takes a lot of space...
In Tokyo I am keeping almost my entire collection in foam trays stored inside boxes. In Athens however I got everything in glass cabinets. With the nuclear crisis in Japan continuing I am still trying to decide if I will leave Japan for good and seek a better fortune elsewhere or stay put...

Either way, my AWI collection will have to go since it takes some valuable space that I could use for my napoleonics ;)
Before sending them off to ebay however I would like to share with you the few regiments that I painted for the British.
All figures are Perry and based for the ruleset British Grenadier. All flags are GMB.
Hope you like them ;)

  1. Sir,

    I take my hat off to you, that's a nice job you have done of those units. How large would you like your AWI collection to expand?
