I used to play it in the Rogue Trader days when you could buy a decent army for fifty quid. <br /><br />Wilbur turned out OK, but he's not the best figure I painted for this challenge. Happy you like him though, and like so many others he'll probably grown on me.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08624491160014232874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720801445504663403.post-30377391113362045712021-05-27T17:19:08.555-04:002021-05-27T17:19:08.555-04:00Thank you, Dave!
