In a frantic attempt to put off doing any work, some of the Toy Soldier industry's top creative types have taken to blogging their hearts out. We suspect an attempt to oust Dave Woodward as Blogmeister supreme. Check them all out and make up your own mind.LEFT: Lord S has all the blogs printed off daily and delivered to the Smoking Room at his Club where he reads them before lunch, whether they've changed or not. Here he is waiting for his daily update.
Dave Woodwoodwoodwoodwooodwoooooodward
Described by Lord S. as 'possibly the best blog in the world,' Top Chum Dave EVM Woodward's blog details the trials & tribulations of painting for GB & The Perries, among others, plus coaching his son's footy team with nothing more to sustain him than a hearty, and ever changing, breakfast selection. Lord S. assures us that his love of this blog has nothing to do with Dave's lovely sister-in-law who features occasionally. Yeah. Right. Read Dave's blog here! RIGHT: Picture of Dave from his blog. He's the one in the middle. If you concentrate hard you can see him...
