Picking up those brushes again.

Hi and welcome to the occasional mutterings of Dave Doc, a military modeller and some time gamer. Gaming and model making has given me a real education, History & Geography(obvious really), Artistry, Politics, Economics, Logistics, Project Management -you try building miniature armies without the last 3.

I will use the blog to record my creations & the odd occasion I actually do some gaming.

I have always been inspired by the aesthetic side of gaming. Playing on well constructed terrain using excellently painted units is always a joy.

Paint table Saturday



Just a quick WIP update. Getting myself back doing unit painting. So starting with some cavalry which I always enjoy. So here we have some Elite Spanish Dragoons, horses now completed, and an 18mm AB figure French Cuirassier . More progress on the 54mm Billy the Kid. A very pleasant afternoon just flitting between projects

It does come round quickly.

Meantime work progresses on preparing their opposition




I have also found some old photos of Peter Gilders collection which are the inspiration for this project.





















Real eye candy I am sure you will agree.

Have a great weekend
