6mm ECW cavalry

Hi!
Only a couple of weeks and I've getting the cavalry in shape.
A quick shot of the 6mm Heroics & Ros ECW cavalry,
I decided to base them on DBR bases 40 x 30 mm for the cavalry. Where I normally base them in two rows of 6 I decided on two rows of 5. It give a little more space on the base. I didn't want 'boot to boot' cavalry lines. It also gave me two extra bases so I'm not complaining!

Above are some primed and partly painted dragoons.
In the middle are the Chariot miniature psiloi and a Japanese ashigaru drum figure and drum.

Slowly clearing the library

Hi!

I have now sold 3 books and 4 booklets in the library clear out.

The latest to go are these from Partizan Press.

Currently, I am painting the Heroics and Ros English Civil War figures. I am happy to let these booklets go to someone else who will appreciate the information they give. I have taken some information from them, names and uniform colours mainly.

What, then, am I going to do with the gains made? I have no idea as yet. When the library is depleted, or totally gone, I will decide. Perhaps some really decent French and Indian Wars buildings and terrain. Or Frostgrave. 

The other thing is the Cuban Independence Wars that has been in Miniature wargames recently. My wife, being Cuban is all for it!

Thank you for dropping by

6mm ECW ready to paint.

Hi!
Today I spent sometime prepping the ECW figures from Heroics and Ros (heroicsandros.).
Basically, a spray paint job undercoat.
I will check the bases I will use again before starting to paint. The Polish and Ottomans are DBR based so I want it to be compatible and not too different. Indecision is a terrible thing. Probably why my troops hesitate to move because they think I'll change my mind!
I'll should change my pseudonym to The Grand Old Duke of York!

As you can see, the weather in Milton Keynes isn't the snow-swept UK that is on the news today.

I will be taking a break at the end of May to attend a wedding in the US. If they let me in. I'm hoping New Hampshire is going to be warm and inviting.

Thanks for viewing.

The city takes shape. 6mm Leven buildings for ancient wargames

At last i'm getting somewhere. Later than expected but creeping ever onward to the goal.
Here are the Leven Miniatures (levenminiatures.co.uk) middle east buildings I got as a  Christmas present.  I think they look good enough. I will add to them at some future point. A small shrine at least for a village or two.
