"Testing... Testing..." *taps microphone* "Is this thing on?!"
The Sinclair Memorial Home for Incurable Tyrants (and Kings) has once again opened its doors! We've been gone for a few months, but we are now back, coming to you live and direct from beautiful and history-filled Ancaster Ontario.
This move has been an exciting one, as my new place has a fully finished basement, which is being converted into a gaming hall, called the War-nasium. I've already got three events booked for the War-nasium this month, and my new gaming table is being delivered this Thursday. The future is bright!
To kick things off here's part III of my Dad's model collection. The Black Watch Highlanders.
These striking figures are plastic Airfix 54mm Waterloo British Highlanders. My Dad painted this diorama as a gift for my Grandfather, years and years and years ago.
My Grandfather treasured this piece, and kept it proudly displayed in his office for decades. It has always been one of my favourites, as well. You can really see my Dad's attention to detail and the careful love he put into these soldiers. Gluing and mounting those paper crossbelts and straps must have driven my Dad nuts!
Thank you again for visiting my little corner of the web. It feels great to be back, and there's plenty more to come... including my tribute to the Great War!
See you soon!
