I have painted them up in a Napoleonic French paint scheme rather than British.Goblin Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931436821182962785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266200265116124990.post-51800712335108792592015-05-03T11:10:00.624+01:002015-05-03T11:10:00.624+01:00Warploque have some hobgoblins coming . . .

We need to meet up more often, although working weekends is a problem for me :( <br /><br />10mm Napoleonics were awesome, and look like the right size for Napoleonic gamings. I was never struck with 6mm. Some of the 28mm are nice, and so cheap.<br /><br />I am currently looking at the Northumbrian Tin Soldier Goblins, but could dip back into 10mm or 28mm Napolenics. :) Goblin Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931436821182962785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266200265116124990.post-28987521595131050422015-05-01T11:08:52.462+01:002015-05-01T11:08:52.462+01:00Great to see you again Lee! - It being 200 years s...Great to see you again Lee! - It being 200 years since Waterloo Im thinking of delving into some 10mm Napoleonics. I have some Baccus 6mm armies and found its just too small for me. The Pendraken and Magister Militum ranges both look really nice. Of course theres also lots of good plastic 28mm stuff nowadays...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821272978961150946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266200265116124990.post-9459703701323149182015-05-01T11:08:09.456+01:002015-05-01T11:08:09.456+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821272978961150946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266200265116124990.post-71364167209967290492015-05-01T11:01:15.034+01:002015-05-01T11:01:15.034+01:00Yeesh! £75 Hydra!

Some of the demos were intro games by companies, whilst others were just people/Wargaming Groups who love their period of history/genre and wanted to put on a display. <br /><br />Another great thing are the number of miniature companies there. It's good to discover new compaines or new stuff released by others. Also handy to buy things such a scenery without having to pay postage, or to have a good look at miniatures 'in the flesh'. <br />Here's the link to Salute 2015, at the bottom of the page are the lists of traders and Wargames Groups: <br />http://www.salute.co.uk/salute/salute-2015/Goblin Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14931436821182962785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4266200265116124990.post-22273437830710489292015-04-28T21:43:45.634+01:002015-04-28T21:43:45.634+01:00Thanks for the write up, Salute looks amazing, I&#...Thanks for the write up, Salute looks amazing, I'll have to go next year as I've never been before.

The whole look of the background, creatures, houses, and semi-Celtic designs have a Jim Henson quality about them.
