Yep, several of our club members have used ARTSCOW for participation game cards.
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Them being 10mm. And Pendraken sculpts. This being in a Pendraken bit of the forum.

I was in a 'funny' frame of mind when I started this thread. Least said, soonest mended.

I use Artscow to print the cards.  Design them in MSE, then upload the jpegs
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Plus painting Cowboys, learning rules and playing 28mm, playing Star Wars X-Wing

OK. Let you off. This time. But you'll have to cut down on this 28mm and Star Wars stuff. OK?*


[p.s. Good work by the way, fella!  :-bd ]

* says he who has not been posting much lately either.    :-[
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Look really great!

I am working on my first 4 elements of Pendraken ACW figures, and am amazed at the detail in such a small figure. I am doing the SC Zouaves, Louisiana Rifles for the south, and the 22nd New York Militia and Berdan Sharpshooters for the north.

Thanks everyone

Terry37 - Very nice. Lots of greys and browns for me, so far, but maybe one day I'll progress to the bright colour in cloth units  8)

When I was a young lad, moons and moons ago, most of my Confederates had light blue trousers. Since those long lost Airfix days I have learnt many things about Confederate uniforms, namely - light blue trousers became very unpopular as the war progressed owing to friendly fire incidents; when union trousers were acquired they tended to be dyed as soon as possible; butternut was an early war make do with grey becoming more usual as the war progressed; in the second half of the war many eastern theatre troops acquired dark bluegrey uniforms made in Ireland; western troops were more likely to have branch colour collars and cuffs than eastern troops; the various shades of home produced grey dye tended to oxidise relatively quickly so that some uniforms took on a greyish brown drab appearance. I would highly recommend Fred Adolphus' three articles on Confederate clothing in ACW Gamer, issues 6,7 and 8.
