    Thank you Glenn, you did a beautiful job of Lady Nelson, I've been having a read through, I will borrow your design for the bowsprit bits as it looks very good and much better than I had in mind, which would have been the same as the main bits but smaller. Cheers 😉

    The paints are opened and pieces sorted, construction begins!! I'm in two minds whether to watch from the easy chairs or the hammocks, as Lou says they're really comfortable 😄 I like the idea of a waterline setting😉 Happy building brother!

    Looking good OC ! Are they the Perry or the Victrix miniatures?

    It's basically tabletop wargaming with fantasy armies, set in the Games Workshop Warhammer World. Turn based combat, movement and missile fire. The rules can be figured to suit most historic periods from ancients to horse and musket/black powder era. For great war onwards Warhammer 40,000 could be utilised.😉

    Yep, if the dice were kind those crazy fanatics could devastate even the best troops although they could also do the same to your own troops😁

    and welcome to MSW

    I think I think maybe it's because of the shared heritage between the British and American culture that it's marketed as Tudor or Elizabethan as that is what was the main building style in the UK at that time and perhaps some of the first migrants to "New England" took the style with them. Also when looking at medieval architecture in europe it seems most old world countries used similar techniques, if the wood was available as in the 14th century bricks were an expensive building material. Other villagers may be able to add extra information 🙂

    Very Nice job Craig, your cabinet is beginning to look like a very upmarket exclusive automobile showroom 😉

    At home today because of the rain, so thought I would make the bowsprit. Using my cordless drill and sandpaper I have got a basic shape also painted the windlass supports and the skylight body still got to make the ratchet and the bowsprit bits, which I'm thinking of putting the pal for the windlass on. Thanks to the encouraging comments and the likes. Cheers 😉

    The stables of my granddaughters riding school let you take bags of the stuff for free if you do the bagging.

    I never won with the Goblins but always had fun losing 😊. I think though that I enjoyed painting as much as gaming.

    Rooting around in the loft looking for a certain book I came across these figures, they are a few of two Warhammer armies I used to game with many years ago. Just thought some might be interested 😉 They've all been painted with Citadel acrylics

    I've searched and found redskin peanuts but not Spanish ones but they are red, quite pricey though, at lowest £5 per KG going up to £15 per KG
  18. Edwardkenway
    We have Planters but not those particular nuts Also dry roasted and honey roasted but no Redskin Spanish peanuts
  19. Edwardkenway
    Fantastic detail, I agree with OC it's far more than a model!!
  20. Edwardkenway
    You got a great sheen on the paint work, personally I think the yellow is fantastic 🙂
  21. Edwardkenway
    I'd say go for it OC, I've gone and got one of my daughters getting me one, very similar to Lou's approximately £40 from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07H85JQJ7/ref=psdcmw_3063725031_t1_B018LOO8YA#

    Read and re-read this series, but my copy of brig of war is falling apart due to much handling.
  23. Edwardkenway
    Thanks Tim, no jigs at all just freehand with sandpaper and files.😁 Thank you very much.😁
  24. Edwardkenway
    I'm with you two on the peanut brittle 😋 and I'm quite partial to honey roasted peanuts. Are you sticking with the walnut planking or using a substitute? Nice job on that planking, it's always pleasing to get that done.
  25. Edwardkenway
    Kind of you to say so, Glenn. The deck furnishings continue, albeit slowly, tonight I've roughed together the main mast bits. sanding is still required. I'm using some scrap AYC and still cannot get over how nice it is to work with. Thanks for looking in ang hitting the button. Cheers 😄
