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.

Prince August 40mm SYW

 More progress on my 'Old School' Prince August 40mm SYW figures collection. Quite a few added, the existing Austrian battalion was brought up to the 48 figs plus 5 officers on foot and one mounted, as standard in the 'Charge' rules.

One more 'blue' battalion added as above, plus two battalion guns.

Next was one Prussian battalion, the artillery still to be added.

I have one Prussian Fusilier battalion still to paint up, guns to cast and cavalry moulds ready to use.







Have a great day,

Dave.

  3. This is something I had hoped to do with my 9 year old grandson.

    He still resists but I live in hope.
