54mm D-Day
Tuesday, September 11th, 2012The final set of photographs of the evocative 54mm scale D-Day model at the Nothe Fort in Weymouth.
In the depths of the Nothe Fort in Weymouth (as well as a civillian nuclear bunker (now abandoned)) there is a really beautiful 54mm scale model of the D-Day landings. Lots of different models in there including an Horsa glider.
It is a representative model and does not reflect an actual beachhead.

Normandy
Friday, August 3rd, 2012
This World War Two Normandy game was a demonstration game at a games show in the 1990s.
Looking back at my old photographs, I wish I had made a few notes as I now have no idea about the game, the background or even which show this was… Back then I was using film and I would take only a few shots at a show. These days with digital I might take two or three hundred!
