I last posted on my 1809 Blog back in
April. Since then – stirred by the
hundredth anniversary of the beginning of
World War One – I put my hobby time
into designing and starting up another
blog, resurrecting an older 10mm project
in the process. This project – The Great
War in the Middle East – kept me busy
painting and modelling the dirt, dust and
sand of the desert and sadly neglecting
my 1809 project for a god few months. The
good news was that in the world of khaki
I learnt some new tricks that I could apply
to the colourful world of Napoleonics. The
truth, of course, being that all wargames
projects lend themselves in some way or
other to informing other projects of
whatever scale or period.
While working on desert terrain it was, of
course, difficult to resist imagining my
10mm Napoleon making a bid to regain
Egypt in 1809!
