April 2011
Just realised that text does not display
properly in Firefox hence the playing around with colour with
only partial success Quite A few
Updates there's some 40K stuff -
Crimson Fists, lots
of bits and Bobs in the
All things Zombie page including
Scooby Doo and the
Gang, Wargames
Factory Zombies, and some updated
Westwind and
GW pics. I've
added a few
Flintloque Todorini Pics, for those off you who don't know
Flintloque is 28mm scale Napoleonic skirmish from Alternative
Armies but with a twist, The figures are various different races
include Orcs for the Brits Elves for the French, Toads are
kingdom of Naples. It's an enjoyable game. he miniatures aren't
to everyones taste but I like them. September 2010
Added some pictures in the
All Things Zombie
folder, includes some painted figs from Hasslefree which form my
group of survivors and some more building pictures of the
Worldworks buildings. I've also added pictures of
Shark's Rifles from
the original Flintloque boxed set.
I've got a load of photos of
Crimson Fists Space Marines and Zombies which I'll try and add this month just
need to tweak the pictures.
May 2010
I've returned to English Civil War, They were the first metal
figures I bought 30 years ago, I still have those figures so
have started adding to them. the first addition being the
Warlord ECW
Cavalry.
I've built a small town for my "All Things Zombie" games
using Worldworks "Urban Mayhem" sets I've also picked up the
Terrainlinx Mayhem sets from Worldworks and started building
that.
I found, buried at the bottom of a pile of boxes, the
original Flintloque box set with Lt Sharke, Sgt Harpy and his
Orc rifles, They're in paint at the moment so ther'll be a
couple of pics in the on the bench section. For those of you who
never encountered Flintloque it's a 28mm skirmish game, Based on
various races in Napoleonic Uniforms, The French are Elves,
Spanish Goblins, British Orcs, There's toads, Dogs and all
sorts. Anyway I'll get a few Pics up and maybe a game review.
I've painted up the
Westwind Zombies and am working on the
plastic Wargames Factory Zombies, I've ordered up some
Characters from Hasselfree Miniatures as well.
Currently working on a Chaos Dwarf army for Warhammer, I also
got some of the Two hour Wargames rules including "All Things
Zombie" so some Westwind Zombies have arrived on my desk.
Aug 2009
Lots of stuff being updated this month,
there's some stuff on prehistoric gaming using Chris Peers
"Tooth and Claw" rules, some
Lord of the Ring miniatures,
Warg
riders, Gandalf and
Urak-Hai. Some great miniatures I
painted for the Christmas Village from
Foundry and
Westwind and
some Spanish Infantry for the Napoleonic games. I've also
returned to my Chaos Dwarf
army and am building that up. The
Sneaky Gits are "in paint" at the moment and I'll put some work
in progress shots in the On the Bench page.
31 Aug 2008
Two updates in one month! There's pics of
the Napoleonic work, 2 French line Battalions and 3
Imperial
Guard battalions, these are a mix of Minifigs (old and new) and
AB Miniatures. The bases arrived from Rob at Fox Bases so
although these figures are on Fox Bases I hope to do a little
more about these items. The figures are based to "General de
Brigade" specifications but could be used with "Age of Eagles"
as well.
I finally got to play a game of "Flames of War" I've had the
figures painted for a while but never got round to playing.
Today went down to Vincent's store "Sir Games a Lot" in the
Bayfield Mall in Barrie. Some very helpful guys there, John and
Doug partnered up with me and Marcus to play a 3000 point game,
very enjoyable and although both myself and Marcus on occasions
looked a little lost trying to keep up the guys at the club were
excellent at explaining. definitely a return visit is in order.
I'm still playing around with the pics, if you don't like
what you see, would like a model in more (hopefully not less
detail) less cluttered ask and I'll post it. Above all positive
criticism is welcomed.
2 Aug 2008
The April issue of Battlegames had an
article by David Brown about his rule set "General de Brigade"
well it inspired me to dig out my 15mm Napoleonic lead mountain
and paint some more of them (and order the rule set). Of course
when you start painting that always seems to necessitate buying
more so I bought my first AB Minis (or are they Eureka now)
whatever.
Very impressed, could paint these minis to a far better
standard than I have but I'm trying to get a good few battalions
painted. So in the
on the bench
section are some pics of last months painting. There mostly
Minifigs of two generations. I said it was the lead mountain so
most are the late 80's early 90's models I had to supplement
with some of the current range.
I'm now waiting on rob from Fox Bases to furnish me with a
load more bases and I'll finish these off and base them. then
I'll post a few better pics.
