Fangorn is my name according to some. Treebeard others make it. Treebeard will do.

 Treebeard 

I purchased this figure last year while at GW world, and painted him for the analogue painting challenge, an excellent plastic kit that went together well. I painted him in dark brown then several washes and dry brushes to get the silver finish I was after. The hobbits are nice sculpts but much smaller than the 2000s metals in my cupboard. He will go on the display case with the rest of my LOTR collection.

Renaissance Galleys

 Renaissance Galleys 

These 1/600th scale ships have been in my collection for over 15 years, when a few of us were thinking about Ottoman - Venetian wars.
The ships are from the Skytrex range, I have some sails coming from the UK in the next week or two. 
Happy with the results

French Napoleonic dragoons

 French Napoleonic Dragoons 

First completed pieces off the desk since our return from holidays. French dismounted dragoon skirmishers from the Perry plastic Dragoon box. Quite a simple paint job and done quite quickly. Really happy with the results.
