Marching Into History: Fields of Glory Models at We Have Ways Fest
At Fields of Glory Models, we believe history should come in a box—with sprues, decals, and a splash of paint. Based in the UK, we’re your one-stop hobby shop for top-tier military miniatures, diorama bits, and historically accurate accessories that'll make even the most stoic general raise an eyebrow. Whether you're a battle-hardened modeler or just getting your boots muddy, we’ve got the gear to turn your tabletop into a tactical masterpiece.
But we’re not just stuck in our glue-scented workshop. Oh no—every year, we pack up our wares, dust off our best reenactment banter, and head to the holy grail of historical military events: We Have Ways Fest.
What's We Have Ways Fest?
Imagine a festival where everyone can tell a Tiger tank from a T-34, and no one will judge you for reenacting Operation Market Garden in your back garden. Hosted by the fine folks behind the wildly popular We Have Ways of Making You Talk podcast (shoutout to James Holland and Al Murray—history buffs and banter kings), this event is a mecca for military history lovers, WWII aficionados, and yes, us model maniacs too.
Taking place in Buckinghamshire, this weekend-long celebration brings together historians, veterans, reenactors, and enthusiasts for live talks, explosive displays (literally), and yes—shopping.
Fields of Glory Hits the Field
We’re proud to say Fields of Glory Models is a staple vendor at the fest. Our stall is part shop, part miniature museum, and full of dangerously tempting model kits. Tanks? Got 'em. Troops? Marching off the shelves. Scenic bits? Let’s just say we could probably landscape your entire coffee table battlefield.
But we’re not just there to sell—we’re there to connect. We love chatting with fellow enthusiasts, trading build tips, debating rivet counts, and yes, occasionally getting sidetracked by a good old "what-if" scenario (What if Rommel had a 3D printer?).
Why We Love This Event
We Have Ways Fest isn't just about history—it's about community. It's about celebrating the stories, craftsmanship, and camaraderie that make this hobby more than just plastic and paint. It’s where your latest build gets the admiration it deserves (instead of the confused look from your partner when you explain why you need another King Tiger). And most importantly, it’s fun. Unapologetically, nerdily, fantastically fun.
Come Find Us
