The "Small Boys"

I've just posted descriptions and pictures of the Japanese and Russian destroyers and torpedo boats on my Col Campbell's Shipyard blog.  Please stop by for a look.

Last of the Japanese Cruisers

Please see Col Campbell's Shipyard for the last seven of the Japanese cruisers that have joined the battle fleet.

The "most" modern protected cruiser Otowa which was rushed into service in 1905.

New Desert Tribe Leaders

After my big Colonial game in June, I traded two older desert tribe cavalrymen to obtain two figures that matched the rest of my desert tribe cavalry.  Since then, I've had them on my painting desk.  This past week I finally got around to painting them as a break from all the Russo-Japanese War ships.

The riders are Falcon Miniatures Arab cavalry on an unknown (to me, at least) manufacturer's horses.  Flags are courtesy of Warflag.com.  They will each lead a 12-figure desert tribes cavalry unit in my Victorian Colonial native forces.  You can click on the picture to see a larger image.
