I only saw pics of this from peeps who were there on the day but I thought it was Gradara! Well done James! It looked excellent

Thanks again  :)

I'll have some wip photos of the keep in a week or two.

It would be great to see some photos of the game in progress!


The actual game wasn't anything to do with me, it was Masterstroke Games that put it on.

Finally gotten round to editing some of the photos from Salute  :)

The keep is drawn and I've started cutting it out and will post some photos when there's something to show. I'll be taking it to Italy at the beginning of June and will no doubt be taking more photos of it all set up in it's final home.

The next show it is appearing at is https://www.play-modena.it/en/

I want to say that you would have to see it with your own eyes to believe it, but I (stupidly) wasn't at Salute!

This is just wonderful James  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

And  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
