Here's a fact for you all.

Prior to 2017 there was not a single documented case of any individual travelling by small boats across the English Channel to caim asylum in the UK.

Not ONE.

This current 'boats' crisis has been largely caused by Brexit.

But for some reason NOBODY is saying that.

Just discovered the ringleader of the local racist 'vigilante' gang is the same guy who was in court a couple years ago for animal abuse, after running underground dogfights in the area. Now a self styled protector of women and children....

(#1) Remembering JG Ballard who died on this day in 2009. Easily the most original and influential writer of post-War fiction. A surrealist who used words rather than pigments. If only he’d given a lecture at the www.bis-space.com
on the exploration of inner space! @mbonsall.bsky.social

And more!

And some more new photos, this time of my Egyptians with Nubian and Sea People allies. Many more to do, of course

Some of my Napoleon in Egypt project. Done purely for aesthetic reasons rather than for a specific game.

Digging these out again to finish soon. Penda's Saxons in 15mm, initially for Dux Bellorum but will do for a variety of rules. 40mm base frontage.

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation

FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

My view, earlier.

Currently doing AZW for Death in the Dark Continent, a set of rules and lists that I find really inspiring. I've got Ruga Ruga to do too.

My little friend

And even more!

And some more random shots of projects from the last year or so. I really should do more glamour shots with terrain...

Did a Commando force this time last year. I'll dig out the rest soon, just need to finish the support weapons etc planning on Going Commando soon, hopefully.

Some more miniatures, this is hobby stuff rather than job stuff... some Egyptians...

Hi all, dipping my toes into a less toxic online environment, I'm sure I'll be posting more once I get settled. I'm a Model Maker / Painter for a 3D printing company these days and into Experimental Music, Art & Film too.
