, however I need to wait until the better weather as I do not have a large table indoors.

Re: Von Imhoff Brunswick infantry regiment

Is it possible, Will, you could take a photo of ALL your S-S figures? It would be an impressive sight.

Re: Annual Show game - a problem

Thanks for all the interest. The really aren't many/any armchair experts attending. We are the only wargame there &, still, a curiosity. The Train show attracts a near total majority of parents seeking to distract their children & train enthusiasts. None have even heard of historical, miniat...

Re: Annual Show game - a problem

You're an Aussie, Dal. Do you really think most Brisvegans would have even have heard of the SYW much less recognise an incorrect uniform? No, it's for us, not them. I thought about your flag swop idea but that would be a fairly sizeable task to transform & then change back.Even re-locating new ...

Re: Maxen- a SYW approximation

Re: Zaphir & Abbas..& BP

They look good, Donald. Laser-cut MDF or scratched? I designed them & my little pal with the laser cutter did the needed. best bits - you can't clearly see them in the photos - are the boilers. I began with the top of a garden hose fitting & used all sorts of bits from the Spares Box. donald
