The troops are off to Gallipoli – finished at last. Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 1. →. A long term project – Great Italian Wars. April 6, 2015. A few years ago Artizan Designs. Began selling Landsknecht figures and being unable to resist I acquired a few regiments and have gradually added more to them on occasions. At Salute I bought some Swiss Pikemen but they languished in lead pile for some time before I painted 12 as part of a LAF. 2 regiments of Swiss Pikemen, the left sided r...

Gallipoli Diorama – more progress. A long term project – Great Italian Wars →. The troops are off to Gallipoli – finished at last. March 29, 2015. I must confess to feeling a little sad yesterday when the troops left. No it was all bubble wrap and a box as my wife and I carefully wrapped each figure for its journey to Wellington with fingers crossed that too many rifles don’t get bent, paint doesn’t rub off helmets or boots and that arms fixed with araldite prove to be strong enough.

The troops are off to Gallipoli – finished at last →. Gallipoli Diorama – more progress. March 22, 2015. It was a choice between moving soil and rubble at the new house today or painting Kiwi troops for the Gallipoli Diorama. http:/ anzacdiorama.blogspot.co.nz/. No prizes for guessing which option came out tops. By mid afternoon I managed to finish off the 10 Auckland Mounted Rifles that I was allotted. These are in a resting pose. Mate, your face looks a bit funny…. Here are all 10. Gallipoli Diorama &#...

Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 2 | VALLEYBOY'S WARGAMES
https://valleyboyinnz.wordpress.com/2015/06/17/waterloo-in-wellington-at-the-wellesley-club-part-2
Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 1. Hougoumont and La Haye Sainte →. Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 2. June 17, 2015. On the French left, the hook had bypassed Hougoumont and put the Allies under severe pressure. The allied advance between Hougoumont and La Haie Saint was faltering but had produced significant results. What yesterday had seemed to be an attainable objective was now clearly an impossible task, Pegot’s Brigade had suffered enormously with 10 fi...

Newer posts →. The Trans Tasman test match… err I mean wargame. November 19, 2015. I’ve spent the last few days in Melbourne at a conference. Melbourne is a place I always enjoy visiting not least because it’s the home of AB figures at Eureka and Nic is always good to me when I call in but also the home of now good friend and wargamer John Baxter. Needless to say I bought quite a bit and will no doubt get around to painting them in the next few months and hopefully display them here when finished. The Au...

Hougoumont and La Haye Sainte. The Games Room →. July 19, 2015. My paints seem to be all over the place at present and they seem to be multiplying. Of course it has nothing to do with my fear that some of my most used or favourite colours will run out so I have about 20 pots of these replacements hanging around as well. Most of the time I use Vallejo though I do have some GW paints (don’t ask which – the names change too often! I found the ideal answer from http:/ www.miniaturicum.de/. And tagged Wargami...

Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 2. A painting stand →. Hougoumont and La Haye Sainte. July 5, 2015. I’ve been somewhat enthused for all things Napoleonic by the Wellington re-fight as you might expect and with the weather being pretty awful for 2 weekends on the run I decided to tackle some 15mm buildings. These are produced by Tiger Terrain and have been designed to have a compact footprint. Tiger Terrain. Website not option 2! A Welsh wargamer living in NZ. A painting stand →. July ...

A long term project – Great Italian Wars. Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 2 →. Waterloo in Wellington at the Wellesley Club – Part 1. June 16, 2015. Sunday 14th June saw the final day of a 2 day epic re-fight of Waterloo. This was fought, most appropriately at the Wellesley Club In Wellington, NZ by at least 30 NZ wargamers. For several weeks before hand not only did Russel Bryant keep the participants updated with daily “today in the Waterloo re-fight” emails containing l...The rules...
