Our heat-up for CoC (*UP 19.05.14)
« on: 11 August 2013, 04:03:31 PM »
In anticipation of TFL's Chain of Command (and by Perry voodoo  o_o) my blogging buddies and myself have decided to build up some basic forces to give the upcoming rules an outing in the Western Desert.
I've just started with an introductory posting on the blog, so there's not much to see yet. The aim is to be quick and effective and not to get lost after the first couple of minis – something we normally don't manage at all. ::) Therefore, as well, there will be no big talk on background or shots of individual figures, just counting units.

First off, a section of infantrymen.



Couldn't resist to test my (fairly limited) skills at photoediting. For the bare bones please have a look at the blog.
This thread will be used for further installations, so please stay tuned! :)

I agree... All for the photoshop effect, which is here used to create atmosphere and not really improve the paint job, which - although fast - is spot on! I know I've seen your minis before, but your results never ceases to amaze me! Great work, Doc!

VERY nice indeed.  I can't wait for my set to arrive.

The desert lists aren't in the main rules, but we will have them available very soon after publication as free downloads.

Gents, thanks for your kind words! :)
And, Rich, a small delay of the Africa list might actually give us much needed time to catch up. :D

Here's the next installment, Cpl Sellers and his section are having a run.



Again, some basic troops to fill the ranks quickly, some (bad) photo tricks added for interest. An unaltered version is to be found on the blog.

Thanks for watching, dear LAFers! :)
