Prototype Confrontation gangers by John Blanche?

Last weekend we nipped over to Foundry and took advantage of their sale to pick up a few odds and ends, (but trying not to add too much to lead pile). Obviously while we were there, we took a look through the cabinets, and I noticed these interesting models. Nothing is labelled, so what follows […]

Frostgrave scenery for practically nothing

Since just before Christmas, I’ve been churning out Frostgrave scenery, all of it made very cheaply. Total spend so far is around £20 and there’s enough to fill a 3ft square table already.

Insulation foam ruins

Specially bought: Woodland Scenics snow flock – £10. I’ve used about £1’s worth so far. A selection of […]

Start of Frostgrave terrain and discount shop goodies

So I have succumbed. My problem is that I have so many bits and pieces that could be used that I have to decide where to start. I have one of the GW Manor house sets that would look good, so the start is to construct bases to put these on. I have also purchased […]

It also included some rather ropey conifers that I thought would come in handy for the Frostgrave project I was starting up. Here’s what […]

Norman Motte and Bailey Castle

Most motte and bailey castles were pretty small – this, with its 15 metre high mound and three storey keep, represents one of the larger examples.
