Some French AHN trucks for that valiant dash across the board towards an objective. Scaled up from original 1:100 scale to 20mm.

Always a pleasure to catch up with @historianinharness.bsky.social at Warfare 2025. A sneak peek at the forthcoming rulebook and a chance to enjoy the enthusiasm that is infectious (oh and some lovely trebuchets too!).

A Sunday morning spent painting a custom French War Memorial in 20mm.

Full details on the process on my blog: wargamingthings.blogspot.com/2025/11/fren...

We’ve got 3 awesome CoC games on offer and lots of other lard themed games.

20mm French R35 finally completed. I think the foliage adds a little something to them too.

Something a little different - Setback and Disaster card holders for a Middle Earth inspired Strength & Honour game coming soon to a Lardy day near you (well if you are on the south coast anyway) #spreadthelard #strengthandhonour #2mm

20mm French R35 decals done, light dusty weathering done. Now to let dry throughly and varnish

The Camembert drug crazed French R35 camouflage pattern is sort of complete. Next are the decals once I work out what the hell I need to do?

I hope there is a special level of Hell that the Camembert drug crazed French designer of their camouflage pattern resides in! What’s wrong with good ‘ol olive drab?

Slap a couple of washes on the Frenchies and it makes a world of difference. On to highlighting and finishing! #wargaming #spreadthelard #chainofcommand

Great progress on the Frenchies. Base painting done and now the exquisite joy of the application of a wash to actually make them half decent.

Why do base coated minis look they have been painted by a toddler?

Another bunch of 20mm French infantry and AT gun crews begun. Hardest part of painting as it seems you have miles to go and the enthusiasm can be hard to find. Painting as per wargamingthings.blogspot.com/search/label... #wargaming #spreadthelard

Time to make some wheat fields - only a throw from Dunelm was hurt and not teddy bears were skinned alive - I promise! Followed @tacticalpainter.bsky.social approach and pleased with the results too. #wargaming #wargamingterrain #terrain #20mm

At Colours 2025 I had a fantastic chat with passionate @historianinharness.bsky.social about upcoming kickstarter for Écorcheurs (which I butcher when I try and pronounce it). Looks like a great narrative driven ruleset for the HYW period. (Sorry for the bad photo btw) #Ecorcheurs #hundredyearswar

A change up and a play with 2mm Strength & Honour - yes 2mm that is a scale that @markbackhouse29.bsky.social is very keen on. Will hopefully see these on the table soon. #2mm #strengthandhonour #spreadthelard #2mmIsARealScale

The "Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul" to me perfectly sums up my current lack of enthusiasm to paint my "pile of shame". I wonder how others crack on and produce so many excellent figures at pace - my get up and go has got up and gone 😀 #wargaming #spreadthelard #paintingbrickwall
