Hi All, my first Post on here. My latest project is Great Northern War and I have started a blog to document my progress in building a Swedish and smaller Saxon Army for the period from inception to figure choice basing and all the rest. Couple of sample Pictures below blog is at; gapagnw.blogspot.co.uk First time at blogging too, hope you like it, appreciate any feedback.

Apologies, I should also point out that the last couple of posts have actually been about the First Carlist War collection but Great Northern War is the main subject. |

Excellent collection, nice basing on the cavalry! |

Thanks Gents first time I have tried this particularly deep basing, was mainly to protect those very long charging bayonets but I think it works. |

Wonderful cossaks and beautiful the other pieces! Are compatible Warfare, Ebor, Musketeer, Wargames Factory ? |

GNW is such a fascinating war. Your paint jobs are first class. Can't wait to see your first AAR. |
RogerC | 23 Apr 2016 10:53 a.m. PST |
Thanks Gents. Costanzo some of these are compatible up to a point. Warfare are taller and slimmer so don't sit so well. The Musketeer are same height but much chunkier so I have not used more than 3 of these. The Ebor go really well with both Foundry and Wargames Factory. You will get a better sense of how they fit on my blog if you look at the close ups on single bases. |

Nice looking army and I like your basing. |
RogerC | 24 Apr 2016 12:57 p.m. PST |
Thanks Frederick! Gotta be honest I taught my daughter how to base a year ago and now most of this basing is hers. |

I love the basing! The layout looks awesome, especially from above! |
RogerC | 26 Apr 2016 1:20 p.m. PST |
Thanks Rob, we do see a lot of games from above so important how they look from that angle. |
