In a prelude to our planned VBCW mega-game, a convoy of Dickinson & Morris Ltd supply trucks supported by Police & BUF Auxiliaries must make it through the village of Wetwang. Dockers from Hull and the Castleford Miners Union try to stop them. In the end they fought the law but the law won!

Screw this *pointing vaguely at the world*.
Here's something I made for my wargaming table. Wood store building from @warbases.bsky.social, extra bits 3d printed, base from the dollar store and leaves from birch tree seeds.

Ooooo-eeerrr!
And indeed I think I might venture to add a "Phwoar! These are lush!"

It is a well-known fact that women aren't interested in historical wargaming, and we only paint fairies and unicorns and princesses.
As proof, behold these four completely blank images that do not feature historical miniatures I have painted.
Fellow femmes, share your own!

Trees are incredibly wonderful creatures.
We should maybe let them run things for a bit.

Thought I’d do a size comparison with the @hatminis.bsky.social 28mm Prussians. L- R wargames Atlantic plastics, HaT plastics, Perry plastics. They are a really good match to all of them, ideal for use on the tabletop.

Just posted 25 games, with a good mix of naval, ancient, Medieval, ACW, Napoleonic, fantasy and SF. Big battles and skirmish games.
Plus the details for both the ADLG and DBA tournaments.

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

These were the last miniatures of 2025. Really enjoyed creating this little vignette, especially the chap holding up the severed head with a smitk on his face. As usual lately the shields are hand painted, the figures are Footsore, Victrix and A&A and the backdrop is by @handiworkgames.bsky.social
