I
’ve recently finished moving house and I don’t wish anyone the stress that
comes from this, but this is not the point.
After almost two years I got my hands back on tools, brushes, colours and on
my beloved grey army!
I emptied a couple of boxes, maybe three, full of soldiers bought over the years.
I rediscovered pieces I had forgotten about, real gems of the period that would
look good even nowadays, like items by Poste Militaire or Grieve: think, they
were cast by gravity and cleaned one by one before being sold!
Anyway it’s been a wonderful experience, somehow I travelled back in time in
the history of toy soldiers, at least the last 30 years.
Moving the various boxes I realized that I'd never paint all those pieces, not
even if I could work 8 eight hours a day for five days a week. Then why keep
buying them, always in search of the missing piece or the latest release?
For 10 minutes I also swore that I would have never bought anymore soldiers,
just the time to switch on the pc and discover the new releases from the manu-
facturers and my promise disappeared, like the money from my bank account.
Will we ever learn? Will we resist the temptation? I don’t think so, it’s part of
our nature of modellers/collectors, we love to paint and sculpt as well as to col-
lect pieces that most probably we’ll never finish.
How many units in your grey armies?
Un abbraccio
Giovanni Azzarà
