Henry Morgan: Welsh Raider of the Spanish Main
OK, we admit that we are reporting this one extremely late by our usual standards! However, sometimes life just gets in the way!

Anyway, what we have here is a quick report on our time at the Great Western Brick Show, which took place on the 6th and 7th October. We were there with our brand new model Henry Morgan: Welsh Raider of the Spanish Main. The model delves into the murky world of the 17th century buccaneers who terrorized the Caribbean in the name of the English crown. The model features lots of ships, a fort and plenty of colonial architecture. This is the first model we've built that isn't based on somewhere in the UK, so research proved an interesting challenge  We have since been working diligently on getting our photos together and making not one but two separate videos!

The show saw thousands of visitors descend on the Museum of the Great Western Railway and featured an extremely strong showing of models and activities. As always we had an absolutely great time and look forward to next year!

Stay tuned for our next uploads by following us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram! ​
