Easter been and gone.

Been awhile but I've been off with the kids over the half term. Had a lovely time in Wales at the cottage we regularly go to. It's just outside Dolgellau and about 3 miles off the main road so quite remote!
Obviously while we were there we visited Porthmaddog so I had to go to the model shop there. (If you are ever nearby I recommend a visit to the town and this shop to support a great little business). They stock models galore, warlord stuff and boxes of soldiers from all manor of eras. Plus plenty of  vehicles for displays, midel train stuff and Amera Plastics! I had a good rummage through the selection (some is for airfix models and not 28mm scale) I located a water fall and a couple of river sections.  Now I've been after a waterfall for a while from Amera as I'm a bit fussy and like my water to start somewhere on the battlefield other than just flow through the board. So a bit more terrain to the collection.

I also found in a little tub Airfix model plane stands! These are around £6 on the internet where as the one I bought was £1.50 !


Now my Typhoon has a stand woo!

Before the holidays I managed to finish of my Napolenic British Infantry (with much stabbing myself on their bloody bayonets!)


I like these so much I may ditch my cavalry unit and have extra line infantry ☺
Also I've managed to do another gaslands vehicle. Using a hot wheels buggy i added a home made machine gun using Bolter drum magazines and a sten from bilt action.


Idris Buggy

The buggy will be sponsored by Idris  (cult of speed ) so obviously it's red as red cars go faster!
I've acquired the right got wheels mustang to begin work on the Mustang from the Death Race films.  I ordered and recieved some 15mm mini guns to add to the Mustang. 


Mini guns for maximum carnage

Have a great day folks!
