No Summer Purchases - Day 16 - 16.6.19 and Split Rail Fences

I've done nothing hobby-wise for a couple of days but on a positive note I still haven't bought anything!

I'm about to start a bit more painting now, but this morning I watched these two videos:



I thought they were really interesting and will inform how I go forward with my War of 1812 terrain.
The point at the end of the first video about the absurdness of the Union army's policy of only allowing troops to remove the top rail from a fence for firewood was quite amusing.

No Summer Purchases - Day 8 - 8.6.19


  1. Ballasted the Spartan hoplites base.
  2. A bit of painting on the French spearmen.
And that's probably it for the day. The weather is absolutely miserable and I can't be bothered to do anything.
