Charming little blog with paper soldiers, quirky but worth a look.

So much for all the painting.

Very quirky but charming  

yes I probably deserved that. Been looking at paper soldiers though, didn't realise how big it was and how many products there were available, as an example have a look at Walkerloo toy soldiers (not a typo, Walkerloo), a good present for nephews and an excellent way to get the younger generation interested. The Paper Battles site however is of a different calibre, this stuff is really nice; now if we could do it on really thin ply, print/paint it industrially then cut with laser, well it would save a lot of painting time would it not.

It's all very charming but the actual battlefield is seriously dominated by a substantial ridge running at the foot of the main road. So this is a lovely battle but it ain't Montebello.
