Napoleon 101 has started on the Podcast Network. I've sampled the first episode, and it sounds pretty good.

My First Napoleonics Game


*SNIFF* I've finally painted enough figures to put on my first Napoleonics game with my own gear. I'm so proud. I do believe that, finally, this officially makes me a Historical Gamer. Now I just have to finish the initiation ritual of criticising somebody's else's uniform painting!

The Waterloo Campaign in Miniature

The Waterloo Campaign in Miniature looks like a very nice Napoleonics weblog that has started up, primarily discussing the troops at Quatre-Bras.

Napoleonics on the March


I decided to take a break in all the Sci-Fi stuff I have been doing lately and go back and finish flocking all my Napoleonic bases I hadn't done.

Smoke Markers


Some interesting ideas on smoke markers from Games Workshop. You can see how I did mine some time ago here.

State of the Hirst


Got a few more Hirst rooms done. It's starting to look a little substantial.

Modern Plastic Barrels


I ran across some really cheap wooden barrels that I think make great modern/sci-fi plastic barrels.

A Couple More Hirst Rooms


It was a long weekend...my son was sick, then my wife and I were sick, I had to go out of town for a house warming, my son had his 5th birthday (January 22, the anniversary of Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift, how cool is that?) and then, unsurprisingly perhaps, I got sick again. However, I did finish a couple of rooms.

More Hirst Pieces Completed


More pictures of my finished Hirst starship pieces. I wouldn't have thought so, but it's more trouble to paint these things than to actually cast them.

First Hirst


I've got my first Hirst Arts starship room put together and painted.
