My idea of having a weekly terrain post to prompt me to do some regular painting failed this week, but was rescued by a couple of serendipitous charity shop finds this morning.

And I got a book on the art of Tintin as well...
A couple of very useful acquisitions
ReplyDeleteMy last charity shop purchases were three non-fiction paperbacks
Roy Porter - Enlightenment [50P]
Jeremy Paxman - The Victorians [£1]
Giles Milton - Big Chief Elizabeth [£1]
All in excellent condition [only slight slight creasing to the spine].
They look brilliant! Great find!
ReplyDeleteGreat luck here! I've been looking for a suitably sized sphinx (say that 3 times fast!) for my SAGA Crusades games. I've not been as lucky as you!
ReplyDeleteNot charity shop prices, but Fenris do several sphinxes

You may remember I have one of their ruined statues - http://diplomatist2.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/look-upon-my-works-ye-mighty-and-despair.html
Some great finds there, and I look forward to seeing them in play - so let it be written! So let it be done!

Ah! Pharaoh Brynner...
DeleteVery nice pieces. A great find.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds.
ReplyDeleteI'm always on the look-out when I visit flea-markets and such. Sometimes you're in luck.
I couldn't agree more, you need your monuments to command awe and inspiration as our heroes come across them.
