Well June 8th has come and gone and I completely failed to post. So in the spirit of "too little, too late" I'm making this catchup post on the 11th and will, in the future, attempt to actually post something on the 2nd monday of every month.
That being said I have managed sadly little painting since my last post, I did assemble and base coat some more confederates, but that's pretty much all the work I've accomplished.
On the purchases front things look a little brighter (of course they do, spending money is easier than actually painting). I've added yet another project to the que. Old Glory 25's has been offering a very tempting deal on the Warhammer Historicals Trafalgar ruleset bundled with all the ships to recreate the battle of Trafalgar in 1/2400 scale. I've always had a soft spot for naval games, and I finally gave in. The Rulebook is very nicely done and I look forward to testing the rules out with a small game soon. The ships from Old Glory are nice enough I suppose, I don't really have any other 1/2400 scale age of sail ships to compare them with yet. I do intend to pickup some of the 1/2400 scale Hallmark ships eventually, possibly an American fleet for the war of 1812.
