As promised


Once again life has dragged me away from the paint table, but on the plus side been working in one of my favourite cities, Glasgow. finished my second unit of the WOTR my impression of oxfords division

As usual the figures are 10mm pendraken's medival range

A second post,  a while ago i tried my had at making some scenery, some wire armature trees, and my first ever building my impression of the dunker church. (even Mc Alpine's had to start somewhere).



The figures are from my ACW minifigs 10mm with a Pendraken officer (yes guys you got iron brigade figures now mr Pendraken, So i'm not a traitor lol) hope you like them.
Have a great week ahead guys got a feeling i'll be soaked and cold all week
all the best

Still here

Once again real life has taken me from my relaxation and enjoyment. So i will say sorry for my lack of posts (if anyone reads this.... if not i'm talking to myself haha)
I have been a bit of a time traveller in my painting...Republican Romans, last of the Carthaginians, (sounds like a movie title) Wars Of The Roses, Jacobite Highlanders, finished the Grant clan as a tribute to my mother who was Fiercly  proud of her roots, and started the Mc Donalds. Also been reading your blogs with interest too.
Hope you all have a great week

My First English Rgiment for the 45'

This is my attempt at Barrels 4th of foot, later to become the Kings Own. I need a new camera instead of my phone, not happy with the way they look. They look much better in the flesh so to speak. As usual the figures are Pendraken 10mm. Finding a new way to paint so i don't get  bogged down, I mix up figures from different periods. Works for me.
Hope you like them, have a great week ahead.

As promised some pics of my 10mm Carthaginian troops

These are some of the figures from the 10mm Carthage army pack from Pendraken, beautiful figures. The pics don't do them real justice, used my camera phone, still got quite a few left to base, so not the full pack here

Citizen heavy infantry


Medium infantry

Do I need to say haha

Hope you like them, I will build this army up with other units when time allows

Sorry its been a while

I've not been lazy, but have been furiously (well for me anyway) painting up a 10mm Carthaginian army pack,  that I bought at claymore. And of course they are Pendraken figures, the new updated range.
And yesterday saw me at the   Border Reivers Wargames show this year at the new venue, the sports hall at Gateshead international stadium. A great show as always well organised and very friendly. My only gripe a little too warm and no food, only minor things, all in all a great day. Our club Tyneside wargames Group put on another huge 10mm samurai battle, good fun.
And as usual I had to invest in in more figures, i bought Pendraken's new Republican Roman  arny pack (grrrr damm you and your fantastic figures haha). was so tempted to buy more, but in the end went cold turkey and bought no more after one 10mm fix, I also bought some paint.
I will post some pics hopefully this week. Hope this post finds you all happy and well,
take care for now

Huge 10mm Samurai battle

Well.... been a while again, (damm real life) First hi to everyone i'll will be busy catching up with all your blogs. I crossed the border into bonnie scotland as a gamer, and not to work which was a nice change. The show we attended was Claymore up in Edinburgh. I tagged along with some friends of mine from Tyneside wargames group who put on a huge 10mm Samurai battle nearlly 4000 figures on the table we had been painting furiously for weeks. Ive added a few pics hope you like them




The pics aren't very good used my phone to take them. The show itself was very good i enjoyed it very friendly and well organised some great games there. And I got my mojo back for painting 10mm again.

Just had to grab this guys ghouls

If you pardon the punn....had a bad time recently, Painting doldrums i suppose. Saw these figures from Heresy miniatures and had to buy them, painted them really gory. Not too happy with the end result, plus the only camera i have is on my phone. Figs look better in real life



Thanks for looking, hope you like them
