North Carolina weekend

No miniature painting recently as last weekend was spent reenacting in the woods near Statesville.

It was the 7th annual Allisons Wood reenactment weekend.

This year along with the usual civil war reenactors. Fellows from the Revolutionary war and second world war were present.

On Friday there was a school day that entertained over 700 children.



Each weekend day there was a civil war reenactment and a WWII one also.

My newest project: Samurai in 10mm


For some while now. I have been wargaming with a computer aided miniature gaming system; Computer Strategies, "Great Powers".

This is a system that is purported to cover the period from 1820 through to 1900. In the European theatre of conflict.

It is a fully intergrated system for this time frame in history. With the ability to game land and or naval at any time.

Also included within its system is a campaign and solo gaming modules.

Although I mentioned above that the system was originally developed for the European conflicts between 1820 & 1900.

With friends, we have very successfully used it to game the Mexican-American war, Russo- Japanese naval war of 1904-05 and one of my favorite periods; The 7 Years War. with minor in house changes.

Onto my newest project: Feudal Japan. The reign of the Samurai in a scale of 10mm.

The majority of the figures used are Pendraken miniatures with a few minifigs thrown in for good measure
