Thu, Jan 3, 2013 - Updated the page on the Renault R-35 now that I'm finishing up the design on that model. A beta build was done at the Paper Modelers forum. Hope to publish it there soon.

Fri, Jul 30, 2010 - This latest update is a diversion into the somewhat related hobby of model railroads. I've started documenting my project to build a modular layout in N scale. You will find that I'm using a lot of the same skills and techniques used in other projects on this site, so it should serve as an area of inspiration even if you are not interested specifically in trains.
Thu, Oct 29, 2009 - I just "published" a paper model of a WW2 Universal Carrier. The paper model is 1:72 scale and is mainly intended for wargame use. You can follow the design/build journal here.
Tue, Aug 18, 2009 - Added a battle report from our latest Crossfire game. The scenario pitted the French against the Germans in 1940.
Thu, Aug 6, 2009 - Added a bunch of new pictures recently. First a build thread for the paper Panzer III. Then a unit list for my new 1940 French forces. Then wrapped up with a new picture of the Panzer 38(t) on the vehicle page.
Fri, Jul 31, 2009 - Finished (mostly) a paper Panzer IV by ICM and documented the build with pictures.
Thu, Jul 16, 2009 - Wrote a new scenario for the France 1940 campaign that can be used in place of the Meuse crossing as a starting scenario. I mainly wrote it to use the French and German tanks that would not be so involved in the Meuse scenario (they hadn't crossed yet).
Mon, Jun 29, 2009 - Working on a WWII 1940 campaign, I have painted the first two platoons of French soldiers using figures from the Airfix box. Also added some notes about the paper tanks I've been building.
Tue, May 26, 2009 - After many years of going under the moniker "The Warmongers Convention" I have finally decided to give this web site a new name. The main reason behind the change is that I'm moving away from the free hosting at angelfire.com to a paid host and needed to come up with a new address. Most of the easy addresses having something to do with warmonger have been taken and so I started casting around for something else. Little Soldiers fit and is even more appropriate. While the pages are being renamed and moved around a bit, all the old content is still here.
