About the Project

A couple of years ago I picked up Blackpowders Rebellion supplement. from Warlord games. Black powder games are hard to get into as it requires a lot of miniatures and my original thought was to delve into Napoleonics but the rebellion book sparked my imagination.I find the wars for independence to be very interesting and colourful with its variety and setting. This project is a chart of my progress as I began collecting the armies required to recreate the scenarios in the supplement and the terrain involved.

I had some terrain tiles that I never did anything with so I’ve decided to make a table for muskets and tomahawks. Last night I mapped it out and landscaped the board trying to keep bit as modular as possible. Today I painted and flocked it. Tomorrow I’ll add some water effects on the stream but I’m happy with what I achieved today. I do rush everything I do so it’s game ready rather than looking top notch. That’s my excuse anyway ?

Thought I'd try some of these water effects and one bottle did my whole river but I'm not sure how many layers I need to do but it looks alright so far Thought I'd try some of these water effects and one bottle did my whole river but I'm not sure how many layers I need to do but it looks alright so far

As I'm using 28mm for skirmish games now I'm looking to 10mm for larger games. Now I've got my 10mm Napoleonic project finished I can start to concentrate on this period more.
