The Zulu war in Miniature: TSATF Zulu markers
http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011/03/tsatf-zulu-markers.html
Wednesday, 9 March 2011. Of course while thinking of what to use to make the markers I soon thought of other uses for which the use of a marker would be beneficial. One Idea was to put the markers to use as the markers for blinds. The sixteen markers in their movement trays which I keep them in when not in use. Movement trays with a single shield placed with its back facing the opponent is used as a blind representing the possible position of zulu's during a game. 9 March 2011 at 10:33. A good idea, sir.

http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011/03/rorkes-drift-hospital-part-one.html
Monday, 21 March 2011. Rorkes Drift Hospital part one. Sorry for the lack of posts in the last week but after completing. The storehouse I took a short rest for a few days so as I'm able to make a start on the hospital afresh. That does not mean I have not been doing any work on the project, just that it has mainly been behind the scenes work IE research and preparation. Firstly I have to cast up a load more Linka pieces for the cladding. Here is that description By Chaplain Smith. 8220; A pretty farm wa...

The Zulu war in Miniature: the finished storehouse
http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011/03/finished-storehouse.html
Sunday, 6 March 2011. Just finished applying a bit of paint to the doors and shutters, so apart from a bit of tinkering I.E applying the odd Highlight to the painting and a final coat of Mat varnish I think It is completed. I have used some artistic licence with regard to some features that I could not find out details about but overall I’m quite happy with the finished piece. The small roof section removed. Rooms until they move or the Zulus enter the room. One of the fllorboard pieces in place. Thank y...

The Zulu war in Miniature: Hiatus over
http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011/07/hiatus-over.html
Sunday, 17 July 2011. It has really been a while since I have done any work on the project and posted any updates on the blog. What initially started as a short few days break to enjoy the hot spell we had a couple months ago, evolved into a full wargame hiatus, but I must say that I feel much refreshed after taking a bit of a break from doing all the painting and scenics. Well thats it for now and hopefully I will not leave it so long before my next update. 30 November 2011 at 15:37. It's been over two ...

http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011/03/wip-storehouse-update-3.html
Friday, 4 March 2011. WIP the Storehouse update 3. Firstly sorry for the longer than normal delay in posting an update, but I felt it better to wait until I had more to report. Well the roof sections have been made and I have thatched the larger main section of the roof , just the smaller section left to thatch. The ground has been completed and is awaiting a few tufts of static grass,and as you can see I have made the external staircase. This still of course requires a bit of painting. Thank you very Mu...

The Zulu war in Miniature: January 2011
http://zuluwarminiature.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 28 January 2011. From time to time you can find wonderful little items rooting around the local charity shops, they usually come in the guise of the odd military history book, but on the odd occasion you find an item that could come in useful on the wargame table. After a bit of cleaning up of the mould lines and a repaint I think the elephants will add to the scenics for the Zulu war games and may in the future be used in some Darkest Africa games. Monday, 24 January 2011. The plan is to use thi...

Sunday, 1 May 2011. Doing a bit of work in the garden. Well I knew it had been some time since my last update but I have only just realised quite how long, I seem to have missed out april entirely. So what is my excuse . well actually I was just being rather lazy and enjoying the lovely weather we have had during most of april. Ummmm how to describe it . well maybe a few pictures will do the job for me. Some rough ground maybe? Ok it was actully a large hill or is a mountain? Redoubt zulus on the hill.
