Qin Chinese - 1st Wave Arives

I got in the first wave of my order with Great Hall Games today. It showed up nice and fast, but one of the packs was wrong. We'll see how long it takes to get the right pack (they just placed a big order with England, so if they don't have any of them in stock it may be quite a while....) but the figs look good. 10mm are some small little buggers, so I'm surprised they have as much detail as they do.

These guys are going to have to wait a bit before I start working on them. I might clean them up, but past that they will be waiting on the 2nd wave, at least a month out from delivery. Which is fine, I have plenty to do in the mean time, between all the other painting projects, the paratroopers, and Mighty Empires.
