Unboxing and review of Crescent Root Studio's 'Villa' products

Well another unboxing video, go figure! This time you are there with me as I open boxes, and move paper to reveal...

Some truly excellent pieces of scenery from Crescent Root Studios.

WIP, another ship...I fear this will not be the end of it!

A very good size galleon, just the the tempting target for  some pirates. However with 28 cannons, and 8 swivel guns it is a target that can fight back!. 

How I base figures, (or what goes into the goo that I use on my bases)

 

 

 

Just got this gem in the mail, after a delay...

                                                     Great little book, well maybe not that little.

What a revolting development this is

 

 This just keeps playing in my mind.

WIP Ships!

Not much to assemble (so far), very nice detail, and not much cleaning required.

 

From books, to movies to tabletop

 

 Well it really was just a matter of time. 

From the nightstand to the DVD player

 

Inspired by my reading of the Hornblower books, I went through my video collection seeking seafaring movies. These movies coupled with the Hornblower novels, have I fear, started me down a bad path...

What's on the nightstand?

 

                    So, I have found that, lately, I have had time to catch up on some reading.

Dollar store find...good for cover

 

 Found this during a brief excursion out of the house, looking beyond the flowers reveals two treasures!

Current status of my ACW project

 

So, not as much progress on this, but some...

I have touched up some old troops, and actually painted some new forces. The Union greatcoat troops seen above are the first 15mm ACW troops that I have painted in 20 odd years! Man, do I hate painting 15mm ACW figures!!
