Just a note to let you know that the free E-magazine "Wargame Bloggers Quarterly" is now out.
The purpose of the WBQ is to help promote wargaming and miniature painting and ensure that the best material generated by participants in the hobby is available to the wider community in the long term.
These principles chime very well with what I want "JJ's Wargames" to be all about and so when I read issue one, last year, I was very keen to get involved.
So I am really pleased to let you know that among five other great articles is my own submission outlining the plans and progress on the current Talavera project. I have to say that the picture quality is stunning and a tribute to the editorial team.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention - and you're right the production levels are excellent!
ReplyDeleteCheers Nigel, enjoy the read.
DeleteThanks for the kind comments about the mag sir. Your own article is a great read and I thoroughly enjoyed laying it out and getting immersed in it along the way.
ReplyDeleteThanks Michael, for your comment and an excellent job. I think the quality of WBQ is a great advert for the hobby and have had really positive compliments from wargamers and non wargamers alike.
DeleteCertainly high quality stuff, not least for an online magazine.
ReplyDeleteAs to the Kingdom of Holland regiment; it takes a certain sort of man to pull off white trousers and a pink waistcoat.

Cheers Vince, and yes the martial qualities required to inspire fear and respect in the enemy are certainly a "raising of the bar" when you turn up in white and pink. You have to think that Murat might have had a hand in the Kingdom of Holland uniform design department.

Yep, they have more than a hint of Neapolitan about them. Murat designed some beautiful uniforms. If only the Neapolitan's could fight.
