This is a continuation of my Sea Peoples project which I posted earlier. I’ve made a bit more progress, and wanted to show where things are now. At this point, almost all of the units (or rather, “battlegroups”, according to the FoG rules) are done except for the basing. I’ve attached them down to the [...]

I painted these a while back but hadn’t posted them here yet. These are parts of a 10mm Field of Glory Republican Roman army. Most of the figures are by Old Glory, although the Triarii are by Magister Militum. I really think that Old Glory makes some outstanding figures in that scale, and I use [...]
A few months ago, I heard about a new set of wargame rules called Saga, set in the Dark Ages. Unfortunately for me, Saga was sold out everywhere I looked, but it did give me a good excuse to haul out some of my Dark Age figures from the lead pile and paint them in [...]
Several years ago, I spotted what seemed to be a great deal on Ebay. Some guy was selling a gigantic pile of unpainted Wargames Foundry Sea Peoples figures (28mm, of course) for a very, very low price. I don’t remember exactly how low, but it was low enough to prompt me to buy the entire [...]
Expanding on my Future War Insurgents shown here, I have added more troops, including some heavy weapons to beef up their capabilities on the table. As with the bulk of my insurgent force, Most of these are made up of Copplestone Future War figures. There are also several Pig Iron Production figures with different heads, [...]
I recently painted some 6mm ACW troops for a customer, and he sent me back a few pics after he based them. My only part in this was to paint the figures. He subsequently based them and posed them with his own terrain.I also did not paint that nice-looking wagon in one of the pictures. [...]
Here are a few 28mm characters I painted a while back. Each of these is from Copplestone except for ‘The Captain’ (dressed in blue), which I think is a Foundry figure:
Just a quick post to show a terrain feature I painted. This resin barricade, which I bought from Ainsty Casting, is good for a wide range of periods, from medieval to 20th Century.
I became interested in gaming the Portuguese Colonial Wars a couple of years ago when my company sent me to Lisbon, Portugal to work on a software project. There was an older fellow in the office, and one day, when several of us went to lunch, he mentioned to me that he fought in Mozambique [...]
Here are some shots of US forces of the Vietnam War. All of these are manufactured by GHQ, if I remember correctly. I really love the GHQ infantry figures, because they’ve got so much detail compared to other 6mm figures. They are a tad on the large size though, which is sometimes noticeable when you [...]
