Some test pieces for my new Ardennes table - testing my approach to snow/frost effects
Any takers for the WG Totenkopf sprue and WA Gladiators sprue from recent magazine covers? Uk only, free, you pay postage
Exciting behind the scenes footage of the Brecourt Manor photoshoot for a forthcoming @wssmagazine.bsky.social tutorial!
Brecourt Manor finished in 28mm, based on a kit from Sarissa Precision, with 3d printed bits from @sabotag3d.bsky.social and scratch stuff. Tutorial in @wssmagazine.bsky.social soon!
I had a really fantastic time at Salute this weekend. It was so great seeing everyone enjoying playing on the table, and being awarded Best in Show was the icing on the cake. Someone pointed out that I've won Best in Show at the last three large UK shows (The Other Partizan, Warfare, Salute) 🙃
Designed and printed by the incredibly talented and hard working @sabotag3d.bsky.social - here's Montcornet Town Hall, ready for Salute tomorrow !
I'll be running my huge multiplayer game of What A Tanker Battle of Montcornet at Salute 53, in the @toofatlardies.bsky.social zone, table GM10! Come and have a game! @slondonwarlords.bsky.social
I don't know why you're lying. Absolutely everyone knows this is an AI bot. Lying about it just makes you look bad and disingenous. People aren't stupid
Why say 'not AI' when it clearly is just another AI bot?
Has anyone got lots of the Warlord Games flame stuff hanging around that they don't need? I seem to have lost my bag of it, and I need quite a bit for my games of What a Tanker at shows
Another Herts of Lard successfully completed! Thats 4 now! A massive thanks to everyone that put on a game and attended with with a great attitude. The quality of the tables was high, but more importantly seeing a room packed with people enjoying wargaming is wonderful !
Very productive evening, finishing the last (kinda) buildings for my Montcornet table ahead of HoL this sat. The townhall is a placeholder as the real town hall scratch build is delayed (I made it too large..). All are 3d prints that are reentered etc. Plus painted 30ft of latex road!
More buildings for Montcornet! Patrick Miniatures was incredibly generous and designed and printed these as a gift towards the table. Based on actual houses in the town, they were fantastic to work on.
I had a brilliant day on Friday. Visited the Wargames Illustrated office, played some WaT from @toofatlardies.bsky.social and showed a sample of my next table
Lots of armour for my Montcornet 1940 table finished up. Some will be used for CoC at HoL, but most for Salute and WaT
Some close ups of amazing @sabotag3d.bsky.social models I've done recently
Big push the last few days to finish up this set of houses for my Montcornet 1940 table. Most are 3d prints from the amazing @sabotag3d.bsky.social , plus some hybrid scratch builds. I just need to glaze the windows,then they're done
Working on a couple of hybrid scratch-builds for my France '40 table. 3d printed windows and rooftops from @sabotag3d.bsky.social , XPS structures, and polyfilla brick work
I've enjoyed a fantastic year of wargaming, despite a very quiet summer with GCSEs and a holiday. But great fun at Lard Days and shows, and some amazing games with friends. Plus, picked up 2 Best in Show Awards and featured in a French national newspaper! Here's to more of the same in 2026!
