The Command Stand

As part of the ongoing Spring Clean, and by way of marking the recent BlogDay anniversary, I have added another page to this humble weblog. ‘The Command Stand’ is just an opportunity to showcase, in one place, those flights of fancy that I have indulged in over the last six years. Small collections of miniatures or scenic bases that were created, often for no other reason than I fancied doing something a little bit different.

The ‘Command Stand’ was going to be the name of a bespoke painting service that myself and the Provost Marshal were considering, the idea being to focus on smaller units or command stands and give them a little more attention  than perhaps you might the rank and file.  Sadly our respective day jobs and the fact that I seem incapable of focussing on one thing for any length of time have put paid to that idea, at least for the present.

More recently these ‘distractions’ have proved the mainstay of my entries in the ‘Annual Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge’ but even without this impetus there always seems to be time for fun and I hope to update the page as and when a new piece is created with a link back to the original post.
