After painting two Highlander napoleonics units I've never gotten myself to paint the final third one :)<br /><br />Highlander is really a great movie! Probably not the biggest cinematic masterpiece, but very entertaining. I'm a bit surprised that it isn't more popular. Definitely has the makings of a cult classic.Samulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768684644521312467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670400813396652991.post-13791894799293702702016-08-07T14:57:20.838+01:002016-08-07T14:57:20.838+01:00That was one of the better films to come out back ...That was one of the better films to come out back then.
