Photos From Blam 2010

[Kestrel]

Sadly not quite live this year due to technical difficulties, here's a selection of photos from Friday and Saturday.

[Sangennaru]

cool! i want more photos!

[Wirelizard]

Oh man. Dribbling with envy here, seriously.

Glad to see the zepp got finished, and all the other in-action shots of other projects we've seen in-progress here on LAF!

[revford]

We've shot there from Texas raiding San Antonio, Adventures in to the Lost World, Zeppelin Adventures, Escaping the Zulus, multi player AT-43, Dairy of the Dead, some Triumph and Tragedy, Taliban vs Infidels and the Heroic Dungeon Adventure,

Such wonderful looking games, I'm officially jealous and really must try to make it again next year. Thanks for posting these. 

Why is Overlord showing us his leopard-skin posing pouch?

[Captain Blood]

I only got a few pics, and sad to say, selfishly, mainly from the games I was involved in.
(My excuse being that having run / taken part in 8 games, I didn't have time to shoot much else!)

First up, Gamer Mac (and his bro, Andrew's) stunning Zeppelin.
I can only tell you, it's even better in the flesh.
I'm sure many more people, including Gamer Mac hopefully, will have many more pics which do this incredible, epic construction full justice:





The cargo bay, plane dock and bomb doors.



And in case you were wondering about the level of detail, just look at the paintwork on the friggin' trolley jack! Not to mention the mug. I can only tell you it's the first time I've seen a 28mm scale pencil and clipboard perfectly rendered. And if I tell you the saucepans in the galley had food bubbling in them, well...



Next up, Snr Malamute's ever expanding San Antonio de Bejar - again, totally gorgeous.







Onto the Zulu War escapade game run by Malamute and myself. Three times through. This is the third game.
Revford looks worried at the British prospects - as well he might, he'd seen the previous games...



The idea is that the British have to escape the Zulus. In this game, strangely, they decided to make a stand on a hill... 



Things go from bad to worse...





Prince Louis Napoleon takes a circuitous route to avoid the fisticuffs. Unfortunately it didn't do him any good...



Captain Carey, wounded, unhorsed (twice), and having fallen over innumerable times, makes his last stand amonst the ooga-booga trees.



Corporal Grubb narrowly effects his escape from the donga...




My Wars of the Roses game from this morning. A brief but bloody affair.





Piling into each other in the hedgerows...



An unfortunate interlude on a hill.



And lastly, but certainly not least, Silent Invader's F&IW game. Grimm thought he had me, but in the end, I had him - ha ha!!!



An unsuspecting party of redcoats march smartly through the peaceful woods... 



And that's all I got 
There were many more wonderful looking games on offer, and I'm sure the pics will be forthcoming!

This is all so wonderful.
Wished I was there !
Glad you guys had so much fun !

[Overlord]

Why is Overlord showing us his leopard-skin posing pouch?

It might be leopard-skin. It might be a pouch. I may indeed be posing.
But it is, in fact, the "Furry bag of death^TM".
Used to dispense death, wounds or a lucky escape to the adventurers of the Lost World. 
(Sorry you couldnt make it this year)

We've just arrived back in the westcounty, miniatures and scenery safely stashed away.

Great fun and as ever I didn't get a chance to play all the games I'd like to, there just isn't ever enough time.

[Lt. Hazel]

Great looking games, tables and miniatures. I wanted to participate so much but failed to jump over the channel.

Hi Guys,

Wonderful stuff and I don't know where to begin. My love is the Texan War of Independence and the Zulu Game. Well done to all for facilitating a wonderful event.

Cheers,

Helen

That's incredible... a real community event there. All that hard work you see from the posts on this forum... it must be great to actually do something with it all. I like all the photos, especially the one of the zombie about the get run over by the car. I could probably have done without seeing the unfortunate shot of someone's crotch, however...

 

Thanks for postnig these up, can't wait to see more!

You lucky, lucky bastards ...

Pretty much sums up what I was going to post 

Lovely stuff.
