OK, so I've starting with a Spyglass MIniature I picked up in the works for £0.99, which still leaves me £9.01 from the starting 10 quid budget.

I will clean and undercoat in white later today, and make a start on this over the weekend. The intention is make a dungeon style base for it.

nice early saving! Are you going to buy another mini with the left over cash or just keep in the pot and do 1 mini at a time?

Not sure yet, I have a ACW artillery unit I bought for £4, so they may become the next one, not sure yet. To start with I'll do this one as I have a studio paint job to do for Triples for a new miniature company.

The first one is cleaned up and based ready for undercoating which I'll do tomorrow, and start painting it, along with the two studio commissions I have. I'll post pics tomorrow.

I've sourced my 2nd mini, its a pirate I picked up at Wargames Emporium for £0.60. I've now based, cleaned and under coated the first and should start painting it today at some point.

yeah, plan to do a ship or docks type base for him, and at £0.60 he was a real bargain.
I'd try a get the word 'Cutlass' in your listing too :wink:

I picked up this Space Wolf 2nd hand for £2, all that needs doing now is a suitable base for him.
