Can't wait to see them all.
Yearly painting challenges only show me how useless I am at painting...

Okay...with more than a month delay...here are a few more shots from my RCW....;)

In the night before the game, I had to build a couple of mine entrances to get a little bit of pulp-stuff on the board.
Players could enter the mines to get to different locations on the board and to get Victory Points.
When entereing with a troop dice 1 D19:

Random table D10
1 get to entrance 1
2 get to entrance 2
...
7-9 get a russian Icon (Victory points)...I had made cards for these; D6 for Exit point
10 get an Icon, get 2 men reinforcement and choose your exit point

These mine entrances made a lot of chaos and worked really well....;)



And I mustered a few more WW1 russians painted by the late Mad Doc Morris wich I bought years ago.
Wish I could paint like this....:)




And I finished all the odds and ends from variou troops.




I was pretty exausted after all the painting when I left for the big game: 6 Players and a crowded table...




Promise to post a few more pics the next days...or so....;)

Cheers,
Don

I really like the mine entrances :-* and they sound like great plot points in your game. Nice looking table. I am sure that the players appreciated all of your hard work!

Awesome looking table - I definitely want more photos. And I'll be appropriating those mines for an Old West game.

A-Maze-Ing! Lovely looking game - I reckon your hard work paid off. Would love to have been there. And the mines idea - very wicked.
