Choices of the week #15- I Salute you

Right, I know I did a poor play on words, but honestly, if you don't know about Salute, what are you doing here? Indeed, the main event this past week was the Salute from the South London Warlords. Instead of giving you a full listing of posts, full of pics, I'll give you only one. One? Yes, but this blogger did all the job for me and he compiled all the posts about the event. Thanks mate!

So, now that is done, what could we expect this week? Well, I must say everyone was fixed on this event, but I managed to find some good stuff.

First of all, there happened to be, last week, a convention in France, and we have some nice pictures:

A nice batrep between Galatians and Seleucids, using Hail Caesar, in 28mm:

A nice, if small, batrep in 28mm using Fire and Fury:

Another batrep set during a Longstreet campaign:

And another one, with Black Powder, set in 1866, still in 28mm:

Time for some WIPs and tutorials. Shall we start with someone who made an armoured train for the VBCW:

 I didn't know those vids existed. Now I'm feeling less stupid, with these how to's:

A new German brand of primer has been tested. Convincing:

Next, we have some sheer Prussian porn, with Criag's 15mm Napoleonic brigade:

Marc has started painting a Mughal army. His elephant is gorgeous:

And I'll finish with a splendid 28mm vignette, showing Gonzague crossing the Taro (set during the early Italian wars ):
