Landships II

I really felt inspired yesterday… new sculptures designed, moulded and made in a day.

I really felt inspired yesterday having released the first batch of my 1914/15 French Army miniatures earlier this week. It was one of those days when inspired by some of my photo’s of French infantry of the early war period, I set out to create some new additions.

I came up with 3 men with mounted St Etienne HMG on 3 push bikes, an infantryman standing holding his rifle mid way through fixing his bayonet and another French infantryman sitting slumped on his rifle, having removed his back pack after a long route march.

The inspiration came on, the sculpting and modelling began. All these did not exist on the morning of the 5^th august, but by the end of that day, they had been created, and moulded, the moulds cut.

After a swift game of tennis this morning (Usual Wednesday morning activity/treat), I rushed home and span the moulds. These are the first castings.

What a great day yesterday was, when inspiration comes, let it flow.

Thanks all. Look forward to your thoughts as always,
