I have painted four Grand Manner buildings, some smaller terrain items, some monks for the Monastery, Dismounted French Dragoons, Fallschirmjager platoon plus supports, Perry plastic boxset of US Infantry, Warlord and Rubicon allied vehicles, crews and tank riders all magnetized and a Rubicon vignette of WW2 German infantry being briefed by their leader (also magnetized so that they can be used for additional vehicle passengers).
The superb Rubicon vehicles come with different options for the same vehicle kit which make them excellent value.
On with the pictures.
A few scene shots.
We have sold out once again with the Winter book but if you are interested in a copy then send me an email through the appropriate channels by clicking in the box at the top right of this page - 'Setting The Scene' and we will add your details to the list for a 4th print run if we get the numbers to justify the cost.
Another outstanding collection
ReplyDeleteThanks Vinnie.
DeleteSuch wonderful additions! Very impressive as always. /Mattias
ReplyDeleteThanks Mattias.
DeleteWOW Pat --- A-FREAKIN-MAZING! You've been hard at work! You ever get to play any games?! Great job all around - continuing to lead the wargaming world with stunning visuals.
ReplyDeleteHi Jay, I have played a couple of games of Chain of Command on the table and we did the Sharp Practice rescue mission from the Monastery which was situated up on top of the Mountain. All good fun.
DeleteStunning work once again.
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve.
DeleteSuperb, and most timely as I have just started to paint up some Germans for Italy and have the Perry Americans waiting in the wings. I feel another build coming on.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear Phil, Italy WW2 seems to be gathering interest in the hobby.
DeleteI wouldn‘t be surprised if this was due to a certain book coming out at some point...
DeleteImpressive output and really great painting and modeling. Very high standards on display here. 😀
ReplyDeleteCheers Stew.
DeleteI feel like I am Italy,lovely work Pat, great work on the figures, vehicles and terrain, like the dual purpose for some of the vesicles, clever and saves money.
ReplyDeletecheers John .
I also see that your gaming room is getting a bit of a makeover as well.
Thanks John, your vehicle tutorial helped.
DeleteI moved the games room from the garage to a cabin in the garden, never enough storage room though.
Epic Pat just epic!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Thanks Christopher, much appreciated.
DeleteStunning post Pat, my heart leapt with joy when I read 'picture heavy', always a treat. May I be rude and ask if there is a palette list for the GIs and the Shermans? Tinkering around with an idea and could use a jump start so to speak.
ReplyDeleteHi Michael,
DeleteI will be putting a full painting guide and a chart for the colours that I used for ww2 and Napoleonic figures in the new book.
I am hoping to have the book available by the end of the summer if you can wait until then, if not, send me an email.
As for the Sherman's, scroll back up this page to John Bonds blog as he has an excellent tutorial for painting Allied vehicles which I based these on.
Looking forward to the new book, although I may have to bother before the end of the summer, depending on how things pan out. In the meantime, thank you so much for the nod to John's blog, now following avidly.
DeleteYour welcome Michael.
DeleteThis is awe inspiring work old chum!
ReplyDeleteI'll revisit this lot often I suspect...
best wishes,
Jeremy
Glad you like it Jeremy.
DeleteGreat post! The church/monastery is excellent,any word on the new book yet?
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain,
ReplyDeleteI am tempted to keep adding material for the book but have decided to draw a line in the sand and now start putting it all together.
I am hoping it will be ready end of the summer after I have done my bit, then graphic design, proof reading and printers.
Chapeau!!! I bet your well chuffed with the result of all your work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paul, I am glad that it has all come together now. The chuffed bit comes when you hold the actual book in your hands.
DeleteCheers,
Pat.
Holy cow! That table looks amazing - can't wait until the book is out :)
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Tamsin.
ReplyDeleteSplendid! Great idea to use the magnets.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim.
DeleteFirst class miniatures and scenery as always Pat, what a pleasure!
ReplyDeleteYou are too kind Phil.
DeleteWow, you have been busy. Lovely stuff as always and so much of it. I love the way the terrain is adaptable for different eras, it just means you can get so much more mileage from it and it only takes something simple like the addition of telegraph poles to jump from the 18thC to the 20th. Magic.
ReplyDeleteCheers Mark. I do like to get as much mileage as I can out of something for minimum effort.
ReplyDeleteStunning work with superb photography!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan.
DeleteEs increÃble. Que obra de arte.
ReplyDeleteSounds good Dabz.
DeleteCheers,
Pat.
I‘m a little late to the show, but these are some bloody marvelous shots again!
ReplyDeleteYou are never to late Nick.
DeleteCheers,
Pat.
Jaw-dropping! Love everything about it, especially the rocky terrain and that bridge over the gorge.
ReplyDeleteYou are too kind AJ.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Pat.
Looks like a bloody movie Pat. Love it when you do these heavy pics posts.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dai, sometimes less is more but I am glad you like it.
DeleteCheers,
Pat.
I have the Winter book and when I read this was in the making I got excited. Knowing it’s near completion is great news. I’ll be on the list for a copy when you start one.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim.
DeleteIf you can follow the link as Steve will be keeping the list for anyone interested in volume 2.

Hello Sir? I'm in obtaining the plans and dimensions for the buildings Sir. Where can I find them Sir?. Thank you Sir.
ReplyDeleteHi Rico,
DeleteThey will all be in the new book.
Cheers,
pat.
Was this table inspired by a particular battle or region of Italy? It's absolutely stunning.
