At the crossroads

A couple of pics from one section of the battlefield

Gettysburg

Here is a veterans ribbon from the 1893 Gettysburg Reunion

1918 Fokker D VI

This is a $10.00 model that screws together and it looked like one ...so I repainted it with a brush,

so it would look like some what of a kit. Changed a few colors , added a pilot and i guess it turned out o.k.

First of the dogfighters

First one complete...on to the second, now to find a place to set them up

Back to the war

Here's the first 3 of about 100 28mm figs from a company
called Chinstrap  Miniatures in Cincinnati, Ohio. On the
skinny side without too much distortion.

World War One 1917 British SE5A

Besides the Civil War, I would like to do some wargames using WW1 aircraft. I might be doing something in the near future, for now I'll build a few planes, since I've never built any, this is my
first one, and I'm sure it wont be the last. Comments always welcome.

Lincoln Memorabilia

Here are a couple of items from the Lincoln 

assassination...The New York Herald ...April 15th 1865, explaining in great detail the events of the night before and an original piece from July 8th 1865 with an engraving of the Washington jail

that held the conspirators. ( the news did not keep up with the events of the day...this piece was published a day after they were hung, July 7th 1865.  I'll get back to the miniatures real soon...

just wanted to  step back in history for a moment.
