Happy New Year

Howdy all,

A happy new year to you all.

Been a while since I posted so I thought I should probably hit one out today.


So, update on the writing, been writing a lot of back story for my Military Sci-fi series, along with all the characters, as well as working on all the armed forces. Been working on the actual books themselves but you need to put the work in too.

Also in the early process of work on a collaborative effort with my good friend Ferdinand, it's kind of a post apocalyptic Fantasy where we'll have two opposing forces of magic, in the very early stages of it working on the magic systems themselves.

My painting project this year is the Dystopian Wars Prussian fleet that I got  for Christmas, though only half of it has appeared, still waiting on Wayland Games even dispatching their half. The games a good laugh and hope to have the fleet painted in time to display it at Carronade next year for Glasgow District Wargamers Society.

Talking of displays at Carronade, this year alongside the club's Bannockburn display (Of course we're doing Bannockburn, it's the 700th anniversary this year) myself and Sandy Dewer will be pooling our Battletech collections and fighting the Battle of Bannockburn Bog on the Planet of Skye. Hoping to make it a mix of display and public participation. It's a massive switch of the regular displays by GDWS, apart from the occasional Very British Civil War display, everything I've ever seen in my many years as a member is Historical (or Semi-Historical), hopefully this switch is well received.

Apart from that College is going great, almost completed everything from the first semester of the HND, and looking forward to next year and entering the third year of UWS's Computer Networking degree, it will be delivered at Cumbernauld but it'll still a degree course.

Hoping to post more short stories up and finish off Return from the Empire but I had the plan to post a lot last year and it never materialized.

I'll sign off now and get back to doing something constructive.
