I've always liked minis though I've never really delved deeply into them due to the sheer expense (boardgames are comparatively much cheaper). That being said, I fooled around a fair bit with Airfix minis in my high school years, particularly #Napoleonics. I have H. G. Wells' "Little Wars"...
2 regiments, each of 15 Dragoons, on horseback with sabres drawn, arranged on 3 bases of 5. 11th denoted by buff coloured uniform facings and cuffs, 12th by yellow
11th and 12th (Prince of Wales') Light Dragoons.

Deciding on base sizes for @warlordgames.com’s Epic Napoleonics.
Messing around with various test models, and I think I’m going with Arty basing on 40x40mm (up from 30x40mm) to match the Limber base size length (120mm). Thoughts?

A freshly cut lawn and another new French unit painted today using the impressionist style.

Spent the afternoon playing @johnsavage.bsky.social’s amazing (Big) Sharp Practice 2 (1815: On the Road to Brussels) game.
Alongside @glenbrookgames.bsky.social, we (just about) defended La Haye Sainte against relentless French assaults!
#Wargaming #Napoleonics
Post arrived.
Ongoing preparations for (properly) commencing the Warlord Games Epic Waterloo project later this summer!
#Wargaming #Napoleonics
An Oldhammer style Eldar, first for my Stargrave unit. He is in panelled yellow green armour interspersed with dark grey mesh/mail armour. He has a pointy helmet on of bone armour with blue eye lenses. He points a pistol and carries a curved knife. Purple gems are dotted about his armour and weapons.
A Welsh witch of the Napoleonic game The Silver Bayonet stood on a hill in a valley. She carries a broom. She has a very tall dark grey stovepipe hat on her long blonde hair, a white top on with a faded orange scarf thrown around her and a red neckerchief. She also has a red apron on and a green skirt with a checked pattern of light grey lines and darker grey squares.
A French captain of the Napoleonic era imperiously pointing to the side, with his other arm on his hip. He stands in front of a wood on a treetop. He has white trousers and gloves, and a dark blue jacket with a white lapel lined with gold. He has a red sash around his waist and a red neckerchief. On his brown hair sits a bicorne with blue, red and white feathers.
Starting on a few new minis today after finishing these guys yesterday. #nerdlings #thesilverbayonet #napoleonics
Testing out some approaches to 2mm Naps - some French artillery and test blocks for French and Austrians #2mm #napoleonics

It´s great to start a new period with awesome minis. @pianowargames.bsky.social now offers 18mm resin prints in durable resin. The quality is amazing and the realistic looks they create is somewhat uncommon. I love the result and I am hooked. #napoleonics #wargaming #pianowargames
And that’s not to mention the French!
Briefly started after finishing the first tranche of Prussians, but then cut short as I departed for staff college in August.
There are many, many French battalions and regiments to do - alongside a division of Cuirassiers.
#Wargaming #Napoleonics
Amongst a (very) long list for projects to revert to next summer when staff college is finished - my 28mm Napoleonic Prussians. Another infantry division, cavalry and artillery to finish.

Ready to teach Battlefields of the Napoleonic Wars @mropla.bsky.social to two friends in Italia and Türkiye via TTS tonight. We're going in with La Coruña, which looks like a tense scenario to me, it'll be fun!

First of my Austrian Hussars done. Need to re-colour the pants to grey though. After some help from the community I know they are actually coveralls overtop of the blue pants.
Still not sure on basing.

Back at Ep 13 we discussed with Andre Dellovoet about the Unsung Heroes of #Waterloo (1815) - focussing on the Dutch-Belgium contingent Battle at #Quatres-Bras
The documentary premier is this weekend in Veghel.

👋 💬 with Nick Skinner from @toofatlardies.bsky.social on the pod about Sharp Practice - the ambiguous nature of friction in #wargaming is a key component surrounding unpredictable moments in conflict - in this game, it even has an effect on movement!
#Napoleonics
🎧 wherever you get your pods
On today’s ep - Nick Skinner from @toofatlardies.bsky.social discusses #historical #wargaming and how it can give insights into #history

Listen wherever you get your pods!
I mean, it's a bit...sketchy, but as my first go at a 28mm Napoleonic face stands it's alright! He looks SUPER wrinkly though: maybe he is dehydrated? 😅 #novice #sculpting #wargaming #napoleonics
👋 Coming soon…
🎙️ Recorded a fabulous pod talking about historical #wargaming and ‘spreading the lard’ with Nick Skinner from @toofatlardies.bsky.social
