I am working on a 54mm ECW project that has been dormant for about 10 years. I am looking for links to other similar projects.

I am looking for inspiration on flags, basing and reasonable conversions.

We (Skirmish Wargames group) did this a few years back. I will see what I have in the way of pictures – I know I have some because I did a series of articles in Toy Soldier & Model Figure magazine on conversions of ACTA figures for a Scots army around the same time.

For flags we used GMB Designs, scaled up on a copier, plus a few hand drawn ones. We based individually but made movement trays and some guys did magnetic.

Here are some unpainted WIP Civilan conversions. These were needed for a particular scenario in and around an inn. The inn was a scratch-built beauty by master-builder Chris Roope.

Some photos of an ECW skirmish at my place. Figures a mix of conversions, self-cast and stock. The splendid buildings all made by Chris Roope.
