Looking back at The Great Game

The Great Game, the Battle of Waterloo, Glasgow 2019.

A friend of mine brought this to my attention. I played a tiny tiny part in making this game happen but many others played significant roles. Have a look, whether you are a wargamer, a figure painter, a modeller, interested in military history, an archaeologist or just a charitable soul you will find something of interest here.

Sands of Sudan - Progressing

The Imperial Forces in the Sudan receive re-inforcement from France.


This row of adobe buildings below are scratch-built using 2mm plasticard.


This row of buildings are MDF from Laser Craft Art. Can you see much difference.

The mosque in the distance is another scratch-build.


The Legionnaires are by Pendraken with mule train (loads are scratchbuilt) and baggage camels.


Rocky outcrops, again scratch built by me, plasticard, cork tiles, plaster, gravel and static grass.


Might do some Englishmen next.
