Picking up those brushes again.

Hi and welcome to the occasional mutterings of Dave Doc, a military modeller and some time gamer. Gaming and model making has given me a real education, History & Geography(obvious really), Artistry, Politics, Economics, Logistics, Project Management -you try building miniature armies without the last 3.

I will use the blog to record my creations & the odd occasion I actually do some gaming.

I have always been inspired by the aesthetic side of gaming. Playing on well constructed terrain using excellently painted units is always a joy.

    Who's been a good boy this year then! Funnily enough Michael Asher is my brother's godfather...he and my Dad went to Stamford Grammar school together and have been friends since. Great book, too!

    Happy Christmas Dave and at some point we will have to catch up via hangouts! I have a copy of that River Gun Boats Osprey and hoping that Father Christmas may have bought a model to match, but we have to wait until we get home.
