Red trousers. Another entry from the First World War in 100 objects

 



Marne Taxi models

 Scott asked me recently if there was a 1/32 Marne taxi to which I said 1/35 there is but I found this one which is 1/24. 

I found this one I think it is 1/32





The French 75

 Got a great book from our local charity shop The First World War in 100 objects - some great pieces. This is on the French 75.

Remember the Alamo

 I have a soft spot for this film. I saw it at the cinema when I didn't know what a siege was and had never heard of the Alamo. I think my parents thought I would like it. Anyway 190 years. Battle of the Alamo - Wikipedia

From Bavaria miniatures

 

The questions have been pouring in over the last few days, and while I’ve given you several sneak peeks in the past, I want to make it official: yes, the Prussians are coming to our next Kickstarter in a big way! This collection is shaping up to be a truly comprehensive range in 28mm, and I’m making sure they’ll be available both as high-quality STL files for 3D printing and as traditional white metal miniatures.
We aren't just doing a handful of poses, either. The campaign will feature everything from the prestigious Guard Infantry to the backbone of the army—the Line Infantry, including Musketeers, Grenadiers, and Fusiliers. To bring your tabletop battles and dioramas to life, we are also including Generals, casualty figures, and even small vignette scenes. For the hobbyists who love the details, you can also look forward to authentic flags and uniform plates to ensure your regiment looks exactly right for the 1866–1870 period (and with a little bit of leniency, 1864 as well!). I’ve attached some of the latest finished renders to show you the level of detail we’re aiming for. Take a look and let me know which unit you're most excited to see on the table!
