How’s that for turnaround time? I haven’t posted my photos from April’s Fort Sumter events yet, but here are my Bull Run photos. Well…. that’s the way it goes. I attended the Saturday reenactment and yes it was hot. At times I thought I was attending a battle of Monmouth reenactment. Anyways, thanks to all the reenactors for putting on a great show and here’s my photos.

Excellent images - a real reference into what "mass effect" should mean and how much detail to put on a 10mm figure.

By my goodness, it was in the 30s C at least there on the weekend.  Many heatstroke casualties?

Excellent pics Bryan - thanks for posting - these are my favourites:





















There are some other great shots too - but those bloody great pylons are in the way!  :)

Yes the transmission towers, that’s the sign of a great civil war reenactment.

Most of the shots appear to be of the Confederates. Do I detect a certain bias here?  :)

But as ever, the unit sizes are too small! It looks like some have only about 40 figure in them, surely on the day there would have been thousands...

Yeah, and the cotton-wool smoke is so realistic....  :D
