Rogue trader Pirates and Strontium dogs
« on: April 21, 2014, 02:54:30 PM »
I've been using spare time (3 kids and a wife don't leave you with much!)during the holidays (10 minutes here, quarter of an hour there) to start painting some figures for a game that me and Cheetor are hoping to play at this years Oldhammer day in August. I'm painting a Pirate crew that are going to be competing against Cheetors crew (who I believe are likely to be Orks) and other hindrances for some space-loot.

I also managed to finish Johny Alpha and Wulf Sternhammer, the Gronk is next!

Some of the Pirate crew that I just got finished this afternoon.

More info about or plans on the blog.
Back to work tomorrow. Boo!

Great stuff.
Love the old skool fellas.
 :-* 8) :-*


I am keen to do some of my own that I have been stashing away for some time now.
Maybe when you post pics of this 'Oldhammer Day' (what is this, by the way???), then maybe by then I will have cleared the decks of my current projects and I will be given the nudge to get going myself.
 :D

Oldhammer day is a really a weekend of old school gaming to be held at Foundry HQ in August and is being organised through the Oldhammer forum. I'm looking to take part in a rather relaxed Rogue Trader game followed by an all in attempt at the semi-mythical Confrontation that GW part published in White Dwarf donkey's years ago.

Lovely stuff mate, exactly what I needed to feast my eyes on!

Great job on Johnny and Wulf, and the pirates are something else. Fine models and fine painting! Now, more!

Yeah, I'll do the whole group together once I have a idea of what kind of board we'll be playing on.
