Toy Soldiers
This is a hobby I had for years; painting lead figures and engaging in miniature warfare contests with other hobbyist and at tournaments. I have thousands of these guys in my collection, but sadly they are gathering dust now.
These figures are about 1 1/2 to 2 inches tall. They come in plain lead. Then they are primed white and painted. It might take over an hour to paint one of them; longer if there's a lot of detail.
I have entire armies of medievil warriors, Zulus, Civil War, Romans, Skythians, Greeks, etc. Later I'll take pictures of more of them.
