photos of our first full size Chaos in Carpathia game

I may go for a compromise in the end - an opening shot of each report in black and white, and then colour photos throughout showing the action.  We'll see.

As others have said, the beauty of your minis and terrain really deserves to be presented in all of its colorful glory IMO.

And remember: Universal Studios may have been moody back and white, but Hammer Horror was all lurid colour!

I would always prefer colour pics. Your terrain and figs are splendid, and I want to drewl over them, not just imagine what they look like in real life 

MORE, please! 

I have CiC, and am planning to play the game - and posts like yours really help spurring me on.

Thanks for the kind words gents.  Just to keep you updated, we will be starting the official campaign this weekend or the following week.

where did you get the buildings used in this game from?

I tend to think this is, indeed, the solution; picking which image to give that atmosphere, perhaps with a bit of nudging to increase contrast or darkening to heighten the drama, may be an unreasonable challenge to suggest, but I'd think worth the effort. Anyway, you knew no good deed goes unpunished.

Your work is brilliant already, mind you; I'm hardly the first to suggest such. 

Of course, if you were TRULY also going in the Hammer tradition, the colours would be so saturated as to be almost painful.

The buildings are from Hovels in the UK. It's their Eastern European range: http://www.hovelsltd.co.uk/easterneuro25.htm

I really love my Hovels buildings, but a little friendly advice. When mine arrived in the mail there were a lot of resin clumps in windows and between some of the logs. It took a few hours with a dremel tool to clean it all out and a little green stuffing to fix up the dremelled areas. In the end (despite my complaining) it was worth the effort, but compared to, say, Armorcast's terrain (which is pristinely cast) the condition of the Hovel's buildings was quite a surprise when the package arrived in the mail.

Yep same for me and I got mine and that was at least ten years ago. I think sadly they are very old moulds and have suffered.

oooh! Yeah color is better imo . .looking at your blog entries on CiC: very cool stuff ...

[Dr Hackenbush]

I just love your games. The scenery, continuing story lines and photos have inspired me and friend to follow in your footsteps in playing CiC. We have bought the rules and the West Wind figures and are working our way to some games in the new year. Hopefully we will have some pictures to post when we get the games up and running. Keep up your postings of your games !

Can't believe I just got around to commenting on this! Great looking game. Top notch scenery and minis. As everyone else has said, the B&W photography is an excellent touch!

This is the kind of article that always gets me inspired to game. Despite fifty other projects on my list, I've begun adding  new minis to my Gothic Horror collection. I sneak one or two in between painting sessions for customers.

Gonna have to see if I can't meet up with you guys somewhere and get in a game (or three!).
