I did a wee test painting of a lava man. I think it's OK despite the use of dry brushing?!

Should be alright :)
But, maybe an extra splash of dark colours on the crust would enhance the lava?

Looks good to be.  :-*

Maybe a little more red mid-tones?

Work work work and I get nothing done!

I'm trying to finish a lot of stuff for a lot of different games as always.

Firstly I'm working on a Gloire project.. a pulpy one at that.


So here's: Athos, Darthos, Aramthos and Pathos - the three + one musketeers helping out Don Armando in our continuous story line.


A few of the personage I'm also adding. The next scenario will hopefully feature all or some of them. Especially the girl.


And where's musketeers there's bound to be cardinals guard also! Everyone knows.


At this year's Horisont convention I'm presenting a small skirmish called 'Don Diego Did It!' with the lovely miniatures from Boothill. Ideally I'll figure out how to make burning miniature torches and give the game a summer nightly feel.


And lastly I'm still rummaging around the pirates theme...


... getting ready for Åcon


And vikotnik is bringing goblin pirates so I had to retaliate with a mystical crew also  lol



Other than that I'm working on a new presentation game that I hope will strike the same chords as my Vikings vs. Owlbears did. It'll be called Attack of The Vegan Cannibals and the basic story is this:


Just a mile out of town a vegan cult was having a lovefest to celebrate Mother Earth. But by some evil trickery their punch bowl with vegetable juice was infected with a flesh-to-plant turning bacteria that suddenly turned them all into horrible cadaver like vegetables!

All their inner hatred for mankind and the way it treats living creature and other vegetables overcame them and they set off to avenge their brethren in the local township.


So the basic game is something about a group of ad hoc investigators and some goverment cover up guys battling it out trying to find out what happened to the vegans. The goverment will try to cover it all up (doh) and the investigators will try to single out the source of the accident. And of course both sides will battle living trees, vegetables and fruity queens along the way.

What'd'ya think!?  o_o

some fine stuff there, like the idea to put Olley's Dwarves to the bunch, looking forward to see the finished versions!

 :D

Last night I had another two splendid games of Gloire. Must say that the system really appeals to me so far. Of course Don Armando was featured again and wound up in lots of trouble.

Today I'm thinking that if they don't already exist some one ought to make LAF coffee mugs! I'll buy two!

Doh!

How did I miss this thread for soo long?

As I'm just starting a "Retro Sci Fi" project myself, your great selection of minis and beautiful pain jobs are a source of inspiration.

And your scratch built models are just BRILLIANT and I'll have to steal ermmm... I mean try a similar idea.

Thanks for sharing.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!
