  3. The personality figures, in my view, rival much larger single display figures. Even if one did not build armies for mid-18th century battles, a few vignettes using Minden personality figures for display purposes would be an aesthetically pleasing pursuit.

    1. Does anyone know if there is a way to block a regular blog nuisance?

    2. This has been a topic on TMP, apparently marking the post as spam isn't effective. The recommendation there is to make comments moderated.

    3. I hate to turn on the comment moderation function as I think that this (especially the Captcha puzzles) discourage readers from posting comments. I just guess that I will have to just learn to live with it.

    4. Actually, I don't know if anyone else has found?-I haven't had ANY Spam postings for about 6 days! I wonder if the great powers have finally sorted the problem for us?

  6. The Austrian commander is called Loudon or Laudon but not Loudan.

    Very nice figures. I especially like the more relaxed poses on the Austrian commanders.
    Great paint job by the way.

    Cheers,
