4/ Scratch building a 20mm version of Saint-Paterne in Biville-la-Baignarde.

Finished off the wood work and a quick spray finish. Truly awful pictures but you get the gist. Calling it done.

Quick stop at North Star Military Figures on my travels today to acquire a few Saxon commanders and I reckon these will do the job! My first Pulp Figures. #miniatures #wargaming #spreadthelard #nerdlings @pulpfiguresbob.bsky.social

& I fought a tough game of the “Raid on a Village” scenario.

I had absorbed lessons from previous games of this & got a hard fought victory. Onto the next game in a few weeks.

Monday night flashback to a favourite Midgard Heroic Battles game, where we transposed the events of Stamford Bridge 1066 to Middle-earth. It was all great fun even if Saruman came out on top! #wargaming #middleearth #spreadthelard #nerdlings #miniatures #lordoftherings #warhammer

3/ Scratch building a 20mm version of Saint-Paterne in Biville-la-Baignarde.

Nearly there. Windows and doors attached, roof tiling completed. Dry brushed and washed, just painting doors and clock to go. N.B. never tile an octagonal steeple!

The crop fields work just as well in 15mm. Thinking about using a similar idea for marshland as well. And some more ancients terrain, this time fencing for Pillage. #terrain #wargaminge#pillage #spreadthelard

Finished of the crop fields today. Usable in multiple games and scales. Should work well with my growing late ancient period Vikings and Anglo-Saxons terrain (Pillage anybody?). #wargaming #spreadthelard #terrain

Spares
NCO 8e Cuirassiers; cut off a semicircle shoulder tip, reversed It and stuck it to the armpit void. Green stuff, file flat and bingo arm point out instead of up. Austrian hussar horse remodelled.

As the Germans continued to pressure on the British line they where pushed back in the centre despite overrunning the viaduct on their left. In an effort to force through the centre the brought up a Puma which was promptly destroyed by a British 6 Pounder. #spreadthelard

The Germans mad a strong start with a double phase and pushed up toward the viaduct. The British deployed their JoPs too far forward so had to defend the viaduct. #spreadthelard.

Clearing the painting table this evening, some more late war German stuff. A HJ flak 38 team, a VG section and various supporting teams. All for Chain of Command 2.

2/ Scratch building a 20mm version of Saint-Paterne in Biville-la-Baignarde.

Basic build done, remind me never to do an octagonal steeple again! Time to let it dry then texturing next

Lunchtime shenanigans. Basic colours and a wash applied. Some extra detailing done on the leathwork. Reat of the highlights on the greatcoat, cap and face to come...

Couple of new bits of kit - A Pak40 and three of the crew, and a knocked out M9A1 of 1RB - to be used as an objective marker or scatter. All 15mm FDM printed as usual. #spreadthelard #wargaming #chainofcommand
