Thanks for swinging back...its rare to see the outcome on some of these more interesting auciton postings we see on various hobby and history sites.

Shortly after reading this our house was invaded by a bat, honest!, not a vampire though. Bad lifestyle choice for the little beggar in a house of 4 cats although we did manage to catch and release it before they did.

Hi Roger,
I hope that you were on a percentage for the free advertising and interest generated on PF........I wonder if it was a member that had the winning bid.
Thanks for the update mate.
Cheers,
Keith
PS My smallest nightmare, Gericault's Chasseur de la Garde (flat 30mm), is coming along reasonably well!!!

Love it! I want one.

Altho...ho hum - no self-respecting vampire would probably show up in Omaha, Nebraska. But...maybe that's a plus!
I wonder if I can bottle some Omaha air and sell it as wholesome "vampire proof" breathing air? With the right marketing maybe? Whaddyathink?

All the best,
Dan

Dan, judging by what's on TV here teenage vampires are quite a common occurrence over there.

Keith, are we going to see some pics?

 

[Wings5797]

Hi Roger,
Yes I will set to and take a picture. I am planning a trip to the UK at the moment but will try to get one on the Planet before I leave.
Are you at home now or still at sea?
Cheers,
Keith

I got home on Friday evening Keith.

 

[Wings5797]

I guess that the brushes are already back into action then.
Welcome home Mate.
Cheers,
Keith

Cheers Keith... and yes they are. I'm working on Dan's Austrian Uhlan, the Leuthen set and half a dozen 30mm Croatians of the Thirty Years War.

 

[Wings5797]

Sounds very interesting. I do like the Austrian Uhlan.
Cheers,
Keith
