Foreign Legion v Arabs

@tthew

7540 Dismounted Indians, as Britains Deetail described them.

They could have been chucked out for all I know.

:-( . So many parents sent these armies to Valhalla.

Fingers crossed they might only be MIA and will be found :-)

@harry_the_spider

Get them out, put them back on parade :-)

Knights v Turks

And the newer (some) Chinese 00’s. Even these are considered vintage.

For those who really know :-)

The Holy Grail of Britains Deetail.

Cowboys

and Indians

Display 1.

About to dump FB as well.

The community (wherever) is handy and custom interest groups/forums are useful.

Don’t you Insta and about to dump the YouTube baggy app.

Blue sky is nothing special.

… Now what’s that book I was reading and using that sketchbook.

Indian Ink again.

Inspired by a GameCube screen.

Cat in Indian Ink

Starguard.

Sticky heads. How is yours holding up ?

The few  I have are in quarantine.

Britains Deetail for me.

Collect the standing figures and few mounted.

But I have been looking at the vehicles…. Must resist.

PS: Any of you guys got any Deetail in the loft, give me shout:-)

Not interested in their prompts.

Unless we make our own prompts up, of course.

Who’s up for a bike related prompt list. Could be fun :-)

I’ll make a start. Not bothering with prompts.

Unless we could make up our on MTB bike related one :-)

Spooky Wood 1

Indian Ink.

Still don’t like the Inktober name :-(. But that’s my grump.

Ps Don’t forget SevernFest 25 next year ;-)

https://www.severnfest.com/

A ticket should be a ticket. If the event don’t happen= money back.

End of.

PS I don’t know why you guys torture yourselves with people like Ticketmaster etc.

Boycott them, if it’s upsets you that much.

Where is that penguin inflator meme. Tweaked required.

Pix.

Come to SevernFest 25 next year.

Headline act to be announced soon :-)

It’s free :-).

We had the The Wurzels this year :-)

@chickenman

I’ve seen a bow made out of old ?. It worked to a point.

I’ve made the odd primative bow the years. Great fun.

But used carbon arrows.

PVC pipe bows are fun as well.

Found an old slomo video.

I also prefer the US vesrion.   Sorry.

DVLA will snatch it back at some point and auction it off.

O 689

Not 0690.

I love the residents parking around the area where this pic was taken. Good as a private bay outside your house and another three cars on the drive and massive gates.

Where do the cleaners park ;-)

if you miss

In archery you never miss, you only drop an arrow :-)

Even I thought that.

I honestly thought the numbers had been ‘shopped in,

The photo is straight from phone, location near the downs Bristol.

It looks weird, almost to white.

But real.

“The idea of setting up a field archery run sounds quite interesting to mess about with next summer, as well as a biggish yard I have a very long drive, an overgrown field and it’s all surrounded by commercial forestry which is not used by anyone (horrible pine trees) for leisure purchases all with no neighbours within a 1/4 mile so sounds a good area to use.”

Rove and stump shooting.

NFAS dont insure you as such, I think only counts at NFAS endorsed shoots.

I’m not in club any more and use GunPlan insurance instead. Shoot elsewhere… no club bollox.

NFAS

I would’nt bother, unless to want to compete. They are like the UCI of FA.

So a really old UK plate. But doctored for some reason.

O 690

@the-muffin-man

Lol

In Bristol BTW.

@cougar

Field archery is more fun than target.

The range above only has around 30 targets, but like you say the challenge of the terrain and short distances from one to the next makes the fun.

I did a bit of Target Archery for a while, but found it boring. I don’t know how they keep at it. Each to thier own.

Best thing I did was rip the sights off and all the bollox gizmos.

Hunting tackle for  quite some time, then barebow because of the carbons.

Field Archery is the MTB is archery.

@all

Long arrows don’t matter, as long as they fly straight, remember your only killing foam.

I make wooden arrows and always have them a couple of inches longer. Make sure the spine in correct +-1-2lb.

Aim Small, Miss Small! :-)

Managed to get a shoot in today.

Barebow. Instinctive.

Hoyt recurve, carbon arrows and toy Fox :-)

Secateurs and Folding Saw.

Something with four legs ?!

better ending than the Game of Thrones crew.

I thought GoT ended quite well. And they actually ended it.

Not unlike the book. Poor show from Martin, but it’s his bag and that’s that.

Meanwhile in the supermarket …
