Further Norwegians...

I have uploaded some more atmospheric prints of the Norwegian army 1905-1909 for your enjoyment.Yesterday saw me painting an Army Red/White
cavalryman - results will be posted here when I finish him...

The prints depict jager,cavalry and Guard- as written upon them in a charming period hand. Thanks to Stokes (aka Duke of Stollen ) for the fantastic link which allowed me to find the recent pictures.A visit to the optician yesterday secured my first pairs of glasses ,which arrive here soon , and will feed into hobby work as well as real work! My thoughts/future gaming plans, as a result of these pics, are moving northwards into Scandinavia- somewhere often in my thoughts and reading anyway...

Winter

In the light of the recent cold weather here in the UK I thought it was appropriate to post some winter warfare pictures. They are of the Norwegian army of 1905 -1909 and include Norwegian Royalty ,not to mention ski troops. Enjoy the images and keep warm this weekend!

Cavalry

Tonight I found some super images of cavalry from pre ww1 until ww2. I hope you enjoy them...

A happy St Nicholas day to you all. The kitchen is 99% finished and my thoughts can turn to this blog once more , amongst other hobby thoughts .

Bicycle ideas...

Two interesting images showing bicycles. The first shows a bicycle being used to tow a heavy machine gun in WW1 and the second shows bicycle transport for the wounded. It would be great to see models of these in FLW...
