I'm a figure painter, Model maker, and Wargamer. I am an occasional video maker, but I hope to increase my output.

Just the bases to finish off on these International Brigadiers. I hope to add some videos on my YouTube channel running through some of the processes I use when painting my stuff.

The basic shell is done. It looks a bit shite as it’s held together with masking tape!! Hopefully the end result will be a little less shonky😂

Another shouty bloke joins the growing ranks of my International Brigades force. A capo to command one of the Seccion Grupos. Once again it’s a 3D print from Ebro Miniatures.

A quiet morning reading one of my Christmas books and drinking coffee.

The production line on my desk. More International Brigades to battle my way through. Hoping that I can add more finished figures in 2026.

Still battling on with the SCW stuff. Another International Brigades soldier added to the growing Republican force

I forgot how nice some of the 10mm stuff is that I have in my stash. East German Volksarmee that just been their bases finishing off, and a Marder and Leopard 1 for the Bundeswehr forces. I’ve got these in 10mm and 28mm and they could be my 2026 project.

Venturing into the loft is a dangerous task, I inevitably find a long forgotten “project” that requires resurrection. This time round its this pile of shame that found its way down the loft ladder🤪😂

I find myself drifting back to a long forgotten project, 1980s Cold War. With the NVA fighting the Bundeswehr. The rather amazing STLs of vehicles from Bob Mack sent me back to my 28mm collection of Underfire Miniatures and the urge to torture myself painting Strichtarn😂

The simple delight of my daughter working her way through her presents.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS everyone, we hope you all have a wonderful day ❤️❤️

Any takers? 😂
Just a daft idea with the gents from the club I attend talking about gaming and history and if it works, I can try to grab a few luminaries for a chat.

I love a cheeky parcel delivery 😂

More models cleaned up and ready for undercoating. Love this time of year because I can hide from the crap weather in my nice warm painting pit and mess about with figures and wargames stuff.

Still the best Christmas song ever!!

Not entirely certain what possessed me to order these Micro Miniature brushes from DaVinci😂I do use a lot of small brushes so I though why not give em a whirl🤪

Mocking up covers for a freebie supplement I'm putting together for the Chain of Command rules from TFL.
