A blog to discuss my many wargaming projects.
How many, you ask?
Too many.
And I'm adding more
all the time.

10mm War of the Roses Project
At the end of last year I started a 10mm War of the Roses project so I would have a historical set of armies to run games with our soon-to-be-released rules for mass fantasy, medieval and ancient combat, entitled; "Bear Yourselves Valiantly". I thought I would take this opportunity to post some example pictures of a few of the units I've completed so far.
Very nice. I always shy away from 6 and 10mm because I think it might be too small, but then I see work like this and am surprised by how much detail these figures actually have.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go place an order with Pendraken...
Thanks! I don't think you'll make a mistake with trying 10mm, especially Pendraken. I actually find 10's really easy to paint. A basic coat of paint and an ink wash does wonders to bring out the detail.
I've been a gamer since my high school days in the 70's. I'm married to Jennifer, and reside in Maryland. I am co-author, along with Buck Surdu, of "GASLIGHT" and several of its supplements, and "Look, Sarge, No Charts: WWII", and "LSNC: ACW". I also wrote the "Thunder & Plunder"; half of our Pirate rules, "Blood & Swash"
I am a founding member of the HAWKs wargames club.
