I definitely have a hate for 5A. A friend and I once were asked to mark the games at a Derby Worlds. We made up a marking scheme between us and stuck rigidly to it. I believe there were some naysayers. However poorly fronted i.e 5A turning up to a game asking questions and being pointed to the paper...

How do you rate a show? It seemes Hammehead 2020 caused some disagreement. Personaly I think its a show that is leading the way. Some older shows to us seem to be fadeing with the emphasis on the older players and minatures being the be all and end all. Hammerhead is diffrent, the emphasis of both t...

Blockhead, Interesting link. Thanks, Buildings have always been an issue. I did look at buildings built in perspective and narrow but to me they never quite worked, It reall depends on what you want out of a building.

I hope however to have some 2D trees on show and just for the fun of it I an going to try out soem Mr Surf...

I have just made a load of 2D trees, see my Facebook page (its free to host pics). What colors should I use Vallejo shades would be good. No more than 3 colors as life is too short to waste much of it painting. https://www.facebook.com/brian.handley.165 Why you ask? BecauseI recon I can get 100 tree...

Flickr has now chargers, where can I host photos for free. I would like to post a few pics for you all on some games we have had recently.
