Hello from Southwell!

Hello Forum Members from the wilds of Nottinghamshire.

First poster- but hoping to get my painting entries up in a bit!

My Pendraken pleasure- tanks and vehicles...

[Leman]

Hello from a former Nottingham resident (Uni  1971-74). Hope you enjoy it on the forum. I too enjoy vehicles, mainly horse drawn or steam powered, but I do have some WWI tanks and planes.

Hi Oscar and welcome to the Forum!

Welcome to the forum, Mr. Hound. If Centurions are included among your tanks, a certain someone will soon confess his man crush on you. I do mostly musket and pike, smelly, clanky things tanks. 

[Orcs]

Good Afternoon Mr Hound

Welcome to the forum.  I like tanks too, but given your location should you not have an avid interest of Bow armed troops?

[Big Gazza]

Hi and welcome.

Hi Oscar.

Welcome to the forum

Is the 'Bamboo Garden' still operating in Southwell ?
Used to go there for a take-away once a week/fortnight.
Mrs Techno (Von) met one of her heroes (Red Rum) at the racecourse there MANY years go.

Cheers - Phil. (Who lived in Caunton, about 5 miles from Southwell.)

What ho, Mr Hound.

Smelly, clanky things tanks.   

As, I would suggest, are most Pike and Musket armies.


About tanks. What types are we talking? 

[Westmarcher]

Oscart - He-Hound.      Has a kind of heroic ring to it. 

Anyhoo, a warm welcome from me, too.

Considering where our new friend comes from, would have thought Code BRV64 (formerly BR135).

Southwell - sound foreign, I don't like it....

Hi - dont take any of us seriously.

Hello and welcome!

What Ho, Oscar! Welcome to the forum!

[Oscarthehound]

Well well well.... what a welcome!
Yep so whilst I am in Robin Hood country alas my modelling interest is strictly for vehicles (tanks mainly- WW1/ interwar/ WW2/ post war- the lot!- to about 1970)... and not long bow men. Plus as a novice modeller my skills at soldiers are still at the infant stage. At least with a tank I can cover up my heavy handedness with a splodge of "weathering"

I use the same approach on Highlanders and pikemen.

You make a fair point but with all things being equal - my boys at least have feathers.
