TIM MEE Toys People at Play

These are recasts of an early 1970s set of plastic figures. They are available now in bags of 24 figures  on Amazon.

These figures might be useful at gaming pieces or converted to various periods.

Expeditionary Force Militia painted as Confederates.

My style is getting a bit "Impressionistic" with washes and dabs of color. I haven't mastered blending acrylics the way I could oil based paint.   PLEASE! No comments about the Confederate Flag. (Wink)

Printed flags from the "Internets."





Expeditionary Force figures look a bit like 54mm/1/32 scale war game figures. Some details are way off and at $32.00 per set of 9 figures building a unit is expensive. You do get the benefit of making as many as you like of firing an advancing poses and you are not stuck with lame poses.
