It has begun
Born and raised in the suburbs of Montreal 7 decades ago. Began playing with toy soldiers at 5 years. Started painting & converting at about 12 yrs and wargaming about 15 yrs. Never really stopped.
5 years in the Black Watch of Canada Cadets, 5 years at the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean followed by 4 in the navy. 25 years with CPC in IT simultaneous with 23 years running a boarding kennel. Inherited my love of toy soldiers from my mother's father. Married with a pack of litle Italian Greyhounds and a cat. Prematurely retired and enjoying leisure to game, maintaining our 170 yr old farmhouse and just living.

ReplyDeleteOh dear, another reference the hermit can't place...
DeleteDo you lay the roads and tracks for each game, or are they part of the board?
ReplyDeleteThey are laid down for each game. Usually just a line of sand but sometimes painted masking tape.
DeleteHi Ross,
ReplyDeleteThis really looks terrific. I see something like this and am immediately reminded of all those Prince Valiant stories of yesteryear. Keep up the wonderful work!

Thanks Jerry. I'm glad the inspiration leaks through, largely thanks to Elastolin.
