08.10.2025 16:46 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Yep. Which of course begs the question why our compatriots are so disinterested in creating wargames.
08.10.2025 16:32 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Ehr. No. Wargaming is mainly dominated by anglophones and English historiography is much more concerned with England than the continent. The period of the 5th-8th century is much better attested in continental Europe than on the British Isles. Yet there's a plethora of wargames centred in England.

New reference material
Part of my ongoing obsession with this transitional period.
Game of thrones is the PG-13 version of Merovingian history. Fascinating stories of horrible people.

I have a zero AI policy. Do not contact me if you use AI art. I will not work with or support games, companies & etc who use it.
No this isnβt a βI hate ai because itβs cool tooβ post. This is an Iβm an artist, environmentalists, and Iβll use my own brain, post. I prefer humans and real art.
Congratulations, that's not easy.

I am horrified by the images of a mosque in Peacehaven burning after a suspected arson attack.
Everyone should be able to worship free from fear and terror.
Islamophobia is totally unacceptable. Those who spread hatred and incite violence against Muslim communities must stop.
3d sculpted round shields for wargaming. Made to be 3D printed and used for kitbashing and converting miniatures.
I am having more fun with Nomad!
First try at classic fantasy round shields. The program is running smoothly, so more shields and banners featuring heraldry will follow! πͺπ΄π©

A Sonnet
The day the dead lay deep and quiescent,
βNeath soil so moist and cold, black as a soul
Of one whose life was far from heaven sent,
Whose bloody deeds earned them that dank hole.

French tank markings for 1940 are an interesting topic. A whole rollercoaster ride of questions uncertainty and desperation. There are these books that give you very definite answers and then you find out about the amount of fantasy involved and how messy the reality on the ground was.
