Well, hello there
« on: July 27, 2009, 12:09:50 AM »
Greetings from my side of the computer screen  :)

Just happened to stumble across this site and thought 'Now that's a bloody good place to be'.

Plenty of cracking stuff going on and hopefully I'll be adding to it at some point in the near future.

Interests are...

28m Samurai
28mm Vikings
Boxer Rebellion
Dreadnaughts and other such floaty things
Aeronef and all types of anti-gravity goodness
I like making things aswell  :D

cheers

James

The master of Samurai terrain - welcome Sir.

I was quite surprised by the 'nefs, dont know why just seemed a little left field compared to your work I have seen.

Have you done any buildings for the Boxer Rebellion? Just wondered as that is my current project.

The master of Samurai terrain - welcome Sir.

:) Thank you very much (although I think having a very tolerant Japanese wife helps an awful lot).

I play WAB a lot (also 40K and Fantasy) and the people that I game with tend to do the same but I've always had a fondness for Victorian impracticalities and H. G. Wells is my favorite author (the short story compilation is cracking). Samurai terrain is my first love and with the commission work that I do it tends to put my little interests to one side.

But not any more Muwahahaha...  

sorry  ;)

I have quite a few figures for the Boxer rebellion and the Chinese fortified farm on the website was done with this in mind (it went a couple of years ago) and I have a few blank templates lying around, but I think most people here will sympathise when I say I've got too much to do and not enough time  :)

I'm working on another Chinese watchtower similar to the one in the gallery that could be used at a push but I've always quite fancied doing a rail station thats been ambused by Boxers or some such.

Browsing through the site, there's plenty of good looking eye-candy to get the old juices going again  :D

cheers
