Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: Victorian science fiction film location

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2015/06/victorian-science-fiction-film-location.html

Wednesday, 17 June 2015. Victorian science fiction film location. New Haw Lock cottage this afternoon. I was on my way to Addlestone model shop today as I had, annoyingly, run out of white paint and the colour I use for shading skin. Taking a back route I drove past New Haw lock on the Wey Canal. I decided to stop and take a picture of the lock cottage as it featured in one of my favourite Victorian-set science fiction films: The First Men in the Moon. As worn by Bossk in The Empire Strikes Back. 1958), ...

Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: Some walks in the Victorian East End 1: Leman Steet and Shad Thames

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2015/06/some-walks-in-victorian-east-end-1.html

Thursday, 25 June 2015. Some walks in the Victorian East End 1: Leman Steet and Shad Thames. Shad Thames from Tower Bridge Road. Old warehouses on Horsleydown Lane. A two bedroom flat in one of the blocks here will cost you around a million pounds. The street where my office is. A friend had an apartment in the blue development in the foreground. Tower Bridge from Shad Thames on the south side of the river. Leman Street looking north from just outside the 4D model shop. The Brown Bear at right. H Divisio...

Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: The Prince of Wales' Extraordinary Company

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-prince-of-wales-extraordinary.html

Monday, 17 March 2014. The Prince of Wales' Extraordinary Company. Well, I am keeping up with the release of new North Star IHMN companies even if I am not painting them! I had forgotten I had pre-ordered the new PoWEC until they turned up at home last week. A nice surprise! However, because I pre-ordered I also got a version of Captain Napier without the cuirass too, which is much better. He will become Captain Jonty Smalme in my company! To check out Sir Lawrence Swann. Labels: In Her Majestys Name.

Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: February 2014

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html

Friday, 28 February 2014. The Servants of Ra: Zairah Al-Ghais. Here is Zairah from the Servants of Ra company. This is a lovely, animated figure but her slim ankle is a weak point and she needs careful handling; like the young lady on whom I have based her name! A painting he is producing. For the Worshipful Company of Bankers livery hall in Threadneedle Street. Just make sure there are lots of naked slave girls in it. And heaps of gold! One afternoon, as she stood on the small balcony overlooking the de...

Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: June 2014

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Friday, 27 June 2014. A couple of ladies. Goodness, where are your clothes? Gasped Agnes O'Brien as she rounded the strangely sinister statue in Sir Lawrence Swann's garden in the Meon Valley. The poor girl was practically naked except for a few barbaric trinkets and a very. Immodest loin cloth. The girl looked back at her evenly, seemingly unashamed by her state of nakedness. "Do you speak English? Where is Sir Lawrence? Are you, perhaps, a Hottentot? Said Agnes, swatting the girl's rear with her parasol.

Wednesday, 28 May 2014. Ripper Street Series Three begins filming in Manchester. Ripper Street began filming its third series last week in Manchester; the first time the production crew has moved outside Dublin. They were shooting outside the old Town Hall. Interestingly, given the announcement of the new Gothic incarnation of IHMN, part of Daniel Radcliffe's new Frankenstein. Film was shot there recently too. The crew is moving onto Loughborough and then back to Dublin for the eight episodes of Series 3.

Legatus' Victoriana Wargames: Nineteenth Century Street Scene in colour

http://legatusvictoriana.blogspot.com/2014/05/nineteenth-century-street-scene-in.html

Tuesday, 6 May 2014. Nineteenth Century Street Scene in colour. I was very taken by this recently released colour postcard of a New York Street in the nineteenth century. Alright, it isn't London but it gives a very good idea of the hustle and bustle of streets at the time, with market stalls along the edge of the road. Worth remembering. 6 May 2014 at 23:07. Must admit it was this kind of image that inspired me to get those supplies/groceries from Tabletop world. 7 May 2014 at 01:30. 7 May 2014 at 02:42.
