Hurry Up and Wait

Well, the book has been sent to the publisher and I wait for comments and corrections.  Not to be idle, I've started a couple of projects for life after the publish.  First, starting to gather research on phase 2, The Polish Legion 1796 - 1808.  There is alot of information, the question is can i find enough illustration to complement the book.  I think so, but I'm still gathering info.

Next, I was able to get a copy of the Polish Infantry Drill Manual from 1790, that I used in my book on the Polish army.   I'm copying it over correcting to a more readable modern Polish (think where the original was like ye olde English) and then translate into English to be posted as a pdf.

I also found some great Front Rank miniatures to add to my Confederation of the Bar era army project.  The esteem able Dave Taylor has provided me an article on photographing miniatures that I will try to use to show you progress.

Best till later

  1. OH the Polish Legion will be an interesting read indeed. Is the plan just a relatively factual history of the unit and it's battles & notable personalities or will you place it in the context of a a country that had been partitioned and struggling for independence. Because Poland tried to go to Russia as well as France to gain independence right? Dave Taylor as in the old WD Editor from Australia? Met him along with Matt Weaver years ago when I first started playing Warhammer, used to enjoy his army and painting articles in WD.
