A great Napoleonic book haul today. A book shop at Bolton Abbey (the village), unfortunately closing in a couple of weeks and I managed to scavenge these for the mighty fine price of £23 of our English pounds. #napoleonic #boltonabbey #bargain

Getting ready for Midgard basing. All my armies are currently either on single bases, or 50mm squares.
I have 3d printed sabots and MDF sabots from @warbases.bsky.social ready to use.
Pictures to follow in the coming weeks, but I've included a few crap photos as a taster.

It took me twelve years (!) to build up my audience on Twitter. It took 5 days to surpass the 50% point of my Twitter following on Bluesky. I’m hopeful that the overall growth on this site will negate the need to go on Twitter altogether. Sad to see what it devolved into, but thrilled to see it die.

If you're not familiar with what I do, I paint miniatures to a reasonable sort of standard with an eye to the methods being approachable, easily replicated, or fast. Something for the students, parents, and professionals of the world!

Hello! I put together a basic 'So You've Left Hobby Twitter' starter pack for new joiners to Bluesky who maybe feel a bit lost. It's not exhaustive but should be enough to get a complete beginner started with a mix of content creators, writers and hobbyists. Please share around
