Excellent.
Your Land Ironclads are one of the main reasons I stayed on this forum! I began to miss them again. :(
They all look brilliant and truly creative and ingenious as usual.

Thanks. I got kinda fed up with the rushed, mixed up look of my old ironclads, so this is the start of a new wave of iron!
Im going to do the American (Union or Confederate, havent desided yet) invasion of South America, with all the external factors that get drawn in.

2)Where did you get the amin models used for 'Inverosímil’, War-Leviathan?
3) Do you have a gallery where we can have a look at all you BRILLIANT Land Ironcalds? (not just browsing the forum)

To me it looks like they are the Orc Raider Frigates from the Uncharted Seas game.

2.) Its an old 1/2500 scale micromachies rubber toy thing that I got for about a pound about a decade ago. Ive just added a axle out of paperclip and used some old 1:72 artilary wheels that I had knocking about.
3.) Firstly, Thanks :) thats most kind of you. Secondly, No, I dont have one yet but Im increaseingly tempted to start a blog, appart from a mild lack of time and the lack of a camra that cant make telephone calls.
How would I go about making a blog?

Start a blog is EXTREMELY EASY!
1) https://www.blogger.com/start
2) login if you have google account. If not create it (google mail)
3) Then you just need to click on Create Blog button in you dashboard. Type yhe url you want for blog and - thats all! I can create a blank blog wit 5 seconds :). You just need a google account which is very easy to get :)

Mr Marx, go to www.blogger.com, it's pretty easy to set up and post, even a technoidiot like myself was able to manage it.

Hmm....I will most probably do that. If theres people who want to look and read about my noncence, then why not...
-
hellyeah, go for it!
I'd happily follow it on my blog. :)

Ah, missed this. Good show indeed, although I think you might need to invest in a better camera old boy.
Is that all your Peruvian Infantry?
-
I just need light I think. My camra is 9 thousand (perhaps hunded, or million) pixles. 8.9 Megapixles, whatever that means. Mega = 10^6 right?
No, its not, Ive got 1000 peruvian Infantrymen, thats ten bases of a company each. Im going to add some outher sorts of infantry as well as various outher factions fighting the americans in south america, at least some international brigades, some british investors, confederates americans, The League of Anarchy and pleanty more.

I have crazy idea of creating very small army for "Steel City" (Stahlstadt) from Jules Verne's "The Begum's Fortune" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Begum%27s_Fortune
As you know after Schultze's death the sity of Stahlstadt was occupied by french citizens of Ville-France.
But no one know that now its again under German control (I need to think why :) Because i have no idea).
Stahlstadt have small army. One infantry regiment, maybe no cavalry or only light cavalry. But the main power of Stahlstadt are light and medium but powerful Aeronefs, artillery (siege , horse, field) and Land Ironclads and Contraptions. It also prodices many weapons for Germany and alwoys help Germany in wars.

Fjodin, cant say Ive read that one, but if you want to then go for it.
Just a few God Awful photos. I only have a phone to photograph with at the moment. Im not sure if its a good one. Is 9 megapixles alot? and if it is what am i doing wrong with them?
Here you go anyway.

They're looking great!
I'm no photography buff, but I find a tripod (you can get tabletop ones, which are a godsend) will help kill the blurr.
I usually always use flash and cover it with a few layers of tissue paper to kill the brightness. ;)

You could try downloading Picasa 3, it's a free google photo manager with some good basic editing funtions such as crop, colour balance, brightness and contrast etc. I 'tweaked' a couple of your images with it to give you an idea of what can be done. There's also an upload facility if you need web space to store your photos.

That really does make them look alot better. I think I'll start with some better photography, then try all this other young people teckno electric computer stuff.
On a less photogenic note, Ive managed to knock together a confederate raider thisevening (along with part of an essay that is due in on friday :?) So i'll get them finished and put some picts up at some point.
