Welcome

Welcome to my wargaming blog,
I'm Dave and live in Morpeth, Northumberland in the UK.
This may or may not be a regular thing, we'll just have to see how it goes.

I am a painter/collector of figures first and a wargamer second. My thrill in this great hobby of ours is to place that final well researched & painted unit into the cabinet. The actual gaming with the figures is an important but secondary experience, we all like to win, but it isn't the be all and end all of it, being with good friends and having fun is.
Hope you will enjoy reading this blog as much as I will writing in it.
Just to remind the visitor to scroll down the various pages and click on 'older posts' to see more.
Dave.

"I say, it's the chaps"

Found these fellows in a box some time ago and decided to paint them up:

 Three chaps and some peasants out for the day.
Smithers and his chums.


'Bongo' Watson taking aim.


'Spotty' Simpkins prepping the old popgun.


This peasant isn't playing fair!


This fellow has been watching too many damn gangster films.


"Off you go Fido"



Can't even remember who's figures they are.
Dave.
