Lots of them – bucket loads – well almost! I got back to the office today after a business trip away for a week. My desk was covered in mail. Apart from the four work related letters (I’ll deal with them Wednesday) I had some parcels. I received: 9 books from Osprey Publishing – how [...]  Tags: 15mm, 6mm, Books, Wargames, ww2 | 
2 people had their say - be the next! |  Print This Post |  Email This Post |  There has been a bit of a hiatus with this recently as the real world invaded and took up more time in the other world than I would have liked. As a result, I’ve really not managed any painting or gaming in the last couple of weeks. I have, however, managed to spend the odd [...] A painting progress update on the Prussians. The position at the end of this week is shown below with the changes highlighted in red: Item Ordered Delivered Painted Based Finished Line Infantry 12 12 6 3 3 Reserve Infantry 12 12 0 0 0 Landwehr Infantry 8 8 0 0 0 Schützen 1 1 0 [...] I thought I should keep better track of how the painting is going so I thought I’d post an occasional progress update. This is the first of them. Item Ordered Delivered Painted Based Finished Line Infantry 12 6 3 3 1 Reserve Infantry 12 0 0 0 0 Landwehr Infantry 8 4 0 0 [...] I have completed 7 bases of figures for the Prussian project so far. They can be seen at on my Facebook page at: Thomo’s Prussian Progress or indeed, in the album below: View Full Album [...] Whilst building my 6mm Napoleonic’s, I decided that my Prussians would be part of a historic formation. I decided that the Battle of Leipzig worked as it was in 1813 when the Prussian rebuilding was finished and the later Prussian army was starting to approach its peak. 1813 also gave me the chance to [...] The Confederation of the Rhine was born from the ashes of the Holy Roman Empire. Franz II was the last Holy Roman Emperor and he was forced by Napoleon to surrender his title and dissolve the Holy Roman Empire after his defeat at the Battle of Austerlitz fought out between France on one side and [...] The first batch of figures for my upcoming Napoleonic project arrived yesterday. Enough figures for 6 battalions of infantry, two regiments of cavalry and a battery or two of artillery. I also ordered some generals and such. I’ve had a quick look through them and I am busting to start painting them. First thing, [...] I decided tonight – the other side, at least for the time being – will be Prussians. So, it will, initially, be a German theme. Figures for this? I was tempted to look at Baccus 6mm and I will likely use Baccus for other forces. However, for the project I decided to do the [...] The Confederation of the Rhine in 1812 – map is from from Wikipedia Source Image: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rheinbund_1812.png I’m painting ships for an acquaintance in the US and Armoured Fight Vehicles and Infantry for me (for Cold War, Future War and Blitzkrieg Commander from Specialist Military Publishing). I have the modern Danes finished and the modern [...] |
