The Loose Association of Wargamers

The Troop is right, it’s railway sheets patched together from the railway shop. They have all sorts, it probably works out to expensive though.
Railway modelling prices really make you feel better about wargaming.

In other news, this bloody pick-up’s going in the bin. The spray undercoat has dried in weird raised ridges and the masking tape has left gummy residue like it’s not supposed to, and I don’t love it any more.

Ever seen the paint schemes on Libyan 14.5mm APC hunters.

True, but there’s an art to making something look messed-up, as opposed to just messing it up.

I've never got that art.

I think the incredible attention to detail on Purps' new construction is because, being quite small, he's intending to move into it when it's finished.

now you mention it - is that German figure wearing a cardigan ?

To be fair, I haven’t moved house in a few months....
He’s not even a German figure, he’s a keen birdwatcher!

The barn is actually copied off my parents farm in France. Originally I was going to do it in a semi ruined state but then thought that would be sad.

Probably a memento from when he appeared on "Game of War" with Angela Rippon, Iain Dickie and Arthur Harman (a team described by Mike Siggins in Wargames Illustrated as "the Plymouth Brethren of Wargaming").

The balsa assassin continues in his work...
Getting there now.
It is massive though. I’ve included a Standard Reference Braeburn (SRB) for scale.

This is entirely copied almost perfectly on one of my parents barns in France... and coincidently the barn I plan to house my retirement wargame room...........

First tree tests coming along.
Method stolen entirely off LT and a great use of all those wanky flavoured tea leaves people buy you.
