  • Macedonians Finished

    Ok, got the Army of Antigonos Gonatas finished!

    That’s the first army in my “Mother of All Morphs”, as Paul Hannah put it. A big thanks to Paul for giving me all those wonderful retro Mike’s Models-my favorite miniatures now! Go take a look at the gallery for a gander.

    I also raided Pat Catan’s this weekend and made off with some cool stuff. Check out these trees I got-$1.59 for a package of two!

    I also got this tube of plastic Egyptian stuff, with two cool models to use for a BUA for NKE or Ptolemaic armies. $5.00 got me about 10 plastic figs, some also useful for Barker Markers. The ones below are about 20-25mm tall.

    I have also begun a a small campaign with my friends. Click here, or here, to check it out.

  • Quick Update

    Just a few quick notes:

    If you’re looking for my Drums Along the Maumee 2007 report, click here.

    I’m almost done with my Macedonians-pics will follow this weekend. This was a case of having nothing done, and then most of it done in a short time.

    This site has averaged 1,200 hits a month since January and is included in WordPress.com’s Growing Blogs list. So thank you! It’s my hope to keep up with content and to add a few other things too!

    Mike Demana has posted some pics from Drums ’07 on the G.L.A.D.B.A.G site, go check it out!

    Check out Tony Aguilar’s cool new DBA blog. He’s got some really nice armies and camps!

  • Some 25mm Work

    First off, go to I.H.O.G (International House of Gaming) to check out another perspective from Drums ’07. Concerning today’s update, I was doing some more photo experimentation last night and took some pictures of 25mm figs I have been working on for a while. I’ll probably never finish them, since no one around here plays LOTR, or Mordheim. Maybe I can get some HOTT games going?

    Here’s a Mordheim Dwarf. From the GW Dwarf line.
    All the painting is Non-Metallic Metal (NMM).

     


    Here’s another, this is a GW Rune Priest that was going to double as an Engineer for my warband. This is a re-paint. My focus so far has been on painting the standard.

     


    A GW Eomer model. Sorry about the bad lighting, my flash refused to go off.
    Here are two more angles.

     

     

     

    Up next are some Crusader spear and knights:

     

    That’s it for now. Hopefully I’ll have some more for you this week!
