Just starting out in life again. Let's see where we end up! Perhaps the most boring bsky profile...but it's mine and that's enough for me. Reader, walker, historical wargamer, music lover, red wine drinker and occasional thinker!

First game of the year and it was a pleasure to see my gaming buddy's epic ACW on table finally! Needless to say....I lost!!! Great fun though.

Not great recently but I've just managed to finished my first Turnip28 Regiment. Very clean/basic with minimal kitbashing but I'm happy enough with it. Figures are Victrix but with heads/bits and randoms from various manufacturers.

After what feels like an age, I've finally finished my two 28mm Medieval retinues! I'll be using either Pillage or Assassins & Templars (reset during 1st Baron's War). Lots of scenary finished off too. On table soon!!

28mm market stalls finished. Not the best 3d prints but good enough for me...and cheap (Temu).
I'll be using them for Medieval skirmish games (Baron's War, Pillage etc) but should work for later periods too.

Some pics from today's 28mm WW1 game. I was the defending Brits and faced a stronger German attacking force....obviously I lost!!!

Some pics of the completed proxy 40K project. More terrain/scenic pieces to follow. Figs are a mix of Stargrave, GW, Oathmark, cheap prints from eBay and vehicles are Temu.

Peasants added to my mini Medieval skirmish project. Kept very simple with just a nod towards their leader's livery colours. I've still not decided on rules but most likely Pillage or Assassins & Templars modified to C13th England.

First half dozen figs of new 28mm Medieval skirmish project (Baron's War, Assassins & Templars...currently undecided).
I will get round to painting a design on the banner....at some point!!

Just a few pics from last night's game. We played a simplified Fornovo in 28mm using a OHW variant. Great game a win for the Italians...though there were a few tricky moments for them!

A little 28mm PULP game (30s Egypt) played last night. Mayhem as various parties searched for artifacts, battled Cultists...and each other!
The Belgians (led by Hercules Parrot) came out victorious....whilst we learnt that Miss Marble is a psychopath! Great fun had by all.

Busy of late and not much hobby time....but I have slowly been chipping away at some 28mm Sci-fi minis...a mix of Stargrave, Wargames Atlantic, GW and cheap 3D prints...will use for proxy 40K.

Bit busy with work/life stuff at the mo so not much hobby time. Saying that..here's a little taster pic of what's up next. Been a long time since I've painted any 28mm Sci-Fi...almost finished the first batch of figures and about to start on some scenary.

A few pics from last night's game. Devon, 1792 and the hunt is on for a fleeing Thomas Paine..cue mayhem as Redcoats fought Smugglers and French agents. Oh...and assorted mythological beasts from South West lore!! Great fun...and everyone failed to find Tom!!

Latest 1/700th Cold War planes finished off. Bit of a mixture, topping up existing forces. East German and Albanian Il-28s, Soviet Tu-22, West German Navy Breguet Atlantic, Angolan MiG23s and South African Mirage IIIs. All Tumbling Dice.

Bought the "Thud Ridge" set from TDM recently but subsequently decided I didn't want to game Vietnam....so here are Greek F4s, A7s and Albanian MiG 19s and 21s for a 'what if' 1980s conflict. Quick and easy paint job.

Another OHW session..28mm Italian Wars. Great game that seemed, initially, to be very one-sided but swung to and fro until a much deserved Papal States win.
