Norman farmhouse completed. I really like the look of big, fully 3d printed buildings, and will probably get some. However, there's still something in scratch-building that satisfies that bit more for me.

I don't think so - it's either fully 3d printed, or MDF as far as I can tell.

Some of the 28mm 3D printed terrain you can get (particularly for WW2) is really nice looking.

However, they can be pretty pricey. Fortunately, I have a load of foamex, wall filler and determination!

This week, I have been making various bits of 15mm agricultural scenery - fields / enclosures / vineyards etc. Not all meant to be on the same table, but fun to get it all out at once!

The plan is to try Song of Drums and Shakos - we want quite small affairs, 10-15 men a side

Planning some small scale Napoleonic skirmishes at the club.

Peninsular campaign first - but will inevitably spiral into something silly like the Tyrolean rebellion...

You have to brush the PVA downwards thoroughly to make sure it gets the effect!

They're strips of old towel, laid over each other and soaked with PVA glue

The third part of the big AWI commission is done, and will shortly be sent off to join their friends in Arizona.

Really enjoyed painting these, but finishing them means I'm now open to any other painting projects you'd like. Any period, scale - get in touch here!

Not much effort, and I do think it looks better than just a cloth mat

Enjoying my new photography board - just a little 1x1ft textured and detailed board, but I feel it really adds to photos like these!

28mm Victrix Sub Roman Britons / Arthurians.

Going down the path of hand painting more complicated shields, and that way madness lies!

Things did not go well for Cadwallon.

Northumbria was not taken, but he and his sons live to fight another day. Unfortunately, not many other Welshmen could say the same...
