working on the Cyclopedia Ornria entry for Bertwood, or is it Bentwood? I've never made my mind up and I think I'm going to have to explain how a nation might have two official names...
Mom found and brought my "Warplay Notes" notebook...it's special to me as it has been the repository for all my Ornrian material since around 1998. it documents a lot of changes and useless stuff, but also has (importantly) the uniforms and flags of the nations...and some notes. here are some samples, the images hve not been cleaned up at all.
Howard Bess, the progressive American Baptist pastor has passed away today. He was the author of Pastor, I'm Gay, one of the first books about accepting LBGT people into the church as equals. He was also the founder and served on the board of a great many charities in the Mat Su Valley, and an institution, being the sand in the shell of a great many Alaskan politicians over the past 50 or more years.... a Great Man. a personal friend, and the guy who steered me onto a path away from Suicide... I feel the loss keenly.
I'm drawing some maps of the Blindheim battlefield for Mr. Whitehouse, drawing with the wacom directly into the computer is taking getting used to. still prefer paper to tablets. but there was some progress today
We went out today, I've lost enough weight I couldn't keep my clothes on me, so had to buy some new britches and a top that doesn't look like a beduin blanket. I also got myself a printer, paper and ink so I can start paper modeling.
here are some things I've put together for battlefields...
Perry Minatures reported today on the passing of the great Ian Heath. He was one of the researchers of Osprey books, a prolific wargame writer and scholar of the early medieval period, and famous for one of the largest Tolkein miniature army collections in England. His knowledge is irreplaceable. We are lucky to have his writing and notes survive him.
