S is for Seen Elswhere - Fontanini

Just a couple of finds from Fontanini which have come in over the last year or so, 2 of the 80mm polyethylene Napoleonics (90-odd with the bases), with their flat-matt paint-jobs, and a larger 150mm (who's 185mm all-in with base and Carrara-marble plinth), who has that distinctive antiqued wash, over his PVC, for most of the colours, I think they wash all the colours, then overwash with a watered-down/thinned sepia-brown or dark varnish?

Both the smaller ones still have the spigots for those mahogany-brown plastic bases, so I had to shove them deep into the bedspread! And like an idiot, I didn't think to take two bases of those Knights before I offered them as swaps . . . Doh!
