if you click the 'globe' (www) icon under my avatar, you should get there, eventually  ;)

Otherwise, you can use this link: http://argonor-wargames.blogspot.dk/

Finally got a chance for a proper look.  Really enjoy your blog.

Santa, btw, is really nicely painted.

Thank you! I expect to post a few things over the next couple of days, nothing revolutionary, mostly old minis getting nice new bases, but there might be a new pj in there, if I can find the time to finish it (otherwise, it will have to wait until after the weekend).

Our own Hu Rhu was so kind to send me this decoration material:

Expect to see some snow on Santa's base in the near future!  :D

This is my post #10,000 on this forum, and what better subject to spend that special occasion on than my latest craze?

I got these in the mail, yesterday, from out own White Knight, who has built (and is building) quite a range of renaissance/fantasy minis-

The daughters of Graf Weisz von Schnee (I wanted to get the exalted Graf himself, but, alas, he was a product of my imagination...)

I also have another pair of 'Pop Culture Princesses'/Winter Sorceresses from North Star that I am going to include in this project (I'll post pics as soonas I have them found, prepped, based, and primed).

Tomorrow, I expect to finish Santa's assistant, and to add some snow effect to Santa's base.

A bit more pop-culture/cartoon goodness in line for this:

I do have some other stuff to tend to, before painting any of these, though...

This stalled, because I could not find suitable armed christmassy minis that did not require me to sell my firstborn to cover the shipping - BUT, as Crooked Dice recently announced these (which I absolutely NEED):

http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=113969.0

I have my hopes up for some more seasonal themed stuff (notch, notch), and I am going to paint some bits and bobs (that should also find use for zombie and Pulp Alley games) over the first half of 2019.

Where is the (real) Scooby gang and van from?

Hasslefree for the minis, the van is some private design I got a chance to get as a 'pay it forward' present back then.
