My models have a very 'old school' feel about them and the value for me is not only in the representational aspect but also in the building which has been enormous fun. I suppose to an extent I have probably fallen foul of the fact that it is now seems almost unfashionable not to make your own wargaming kit which I think is a shame as for me I have rediscovered the sheer pleasure in working from scratch. <br /><br />As ever many thnks for the continued support and kind comments - they are always a source of pleasure and inspiration.<br /><br />Only 8 more to go then I can start painting!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-24958759991911317952011-02-19T10:37:27.886+00:002011-02-19T10:37:27.886+00:00I see your list of shortcomings as actually mainly...I see your list of shortcomings as actually mainly a list of positives - as you say, these were conceived as gaming pieces, and as such will be all the more enhanced by the approach you have taken, and be all the more playable for it -moreover, these are hand-built and hand crafted - that's a tremendous achievement, particularly given the amount of differing craft you've been working on - I say sail your fleets with pride!SteelonSandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12231931971295669901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-9766716724647494772011-02-18T23:32:41.939+00:002011-02-18T23:32:41.939+00:00David,

You can feel pride in building them, and you will have even more fun when you use them because they are 100% of your making (I am not including the odd bits and pieces you bought from Peter Pig!).<br /><br />Well done!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.com
