📅👑Author Talk - join me at Worcester's historic Commandery where I'll discuss King Charles I's life and times. Find out more about Charles's somewhat elusive character, often overshadowed by spectacular, but formal, court portraits & the civil war. @BoWSociety @PSHistory

SERGEANT SAWYER CHARITY FIGURE This new model represents our illustrious and beloved co-founder, Paul Sawyer. Paul has sadly been forced to step away from Warlord Games due to a serious illness, but we wanted to commemorate and celebrate his incredible career and passion for our hobby with a special figure. Shown in British Airborne uniform, a nod to the many, many Red Devils he’s painted over the years, Sergeant Sawyer is our tribute to a man without whom Warlord Games would simply not exist, and our lives be far the poorer. 💞 All proceeds from the sale of this figure will go to The Brain Tumour Charity, an incredibly worthy cause chosen by Paul himself. Order yours here - bit.ly/3TqeaMw #warlordgames #warlord #specialfigure #charity #wargaming

Look, it's Oliver #Cromwell! Banner is home-made and hand-painted, so i made it extra big, since I had the chance to. And I added frizzles (technical term) on the edges. 28mm figures by Empress and .... I think Brigade Games? Hope you like them! #commission #englishcivilwar

Powering through another pike and shot regiment for my simmering For King and Parliament project, which might soon reach playable proportions. The Marlowe scenario book provides a good aiming point for collecting the armies. Finished the basing on another regiment earlier.
