First of all, many, many thanks to everyone who has visited my blog over the years. Having started Just Add Water in the early 2000's, deleted the blog, started again in 2012, I never dreamed that that my "content" (awful word really) would be of interest to so many of you out there. I am humbled.
To celebrate I thought I would do it post up a few pictures from projects along with some of the best games I have experienced at the many shows I have attended over the years. After all, wargaming is essentially visual and analogue (if I may be so bold as to borrow the word from Curt who must have earned a trademark on the word!).
Most (not all) of the images are reasonably large files and should be "clickable".

ReplyDeleteThanks Jim.
DeleteExcellent, nice one Sir!
ReplyDeleteCheers Ray. 500000 views feels quite surreal LOL
DeleteA fantastic display.
ReplyDeleteHappy you liked it Phil.
DeleteA great page. Your recent project has helped inspire me to do Vikings and Saxons for the first time. Keep going!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jack. There's plenty more to come re Anglo Danes and well, all sorts! LOL
DeleteWow that was some montage! And yet you wonder why people like to browse your blog for enjoyment and/or inspiration?
ReplyDeleteMy favourites were the knights wading the river and the Roman testudo enagaging some recalcitrant Britons just like the scene from the film 'The Eagle' - was that deliberate?
Thanks Rob. The knight wading through the river is a a snippet of an actual event at the Battle of Fornovo, 1495 where Francesco Gonzaga made a charge across a river in flood! The Testudo is part of a game my mate put on at Claymore- beautifully put together.
