I have given the cave a decent sort out and the preparation and paint desk are ready for some serious production . The AHPC paint challenge will be kicking off in just over a months time so it’s time to get ready.

| I do like a clean desk , but it’s a rare occurrence ! It won’t last long |
It’s been a poor few months for gaming , but that should straighten out now with no real commitments over the next few months
Plans for the winter ( in nothing but scale order ) are :-
1/300th Team Yankee , terrain items . Ruined buildings etc
1/300th Cruel Seas , 2 Fairmile MGB , and with luck a full size destroyer
10mm Fantasy units to contribute to JamesM “For Joshua” project
10mm ACW , Confederate and Union , a brigade of each , plus bits n bobs
15mm WW2 terrain , more Normandy buildings and large bridge
15mm WW2 USA , specific items for D Day games (bulldozers , wading tanks etc)
15mm WW2 USA , 101 AB round out of the stuff I have
15mm WW2 USA , Infantry units
15mm WW2 USA , 82AB company
15mm WW2 , German , Panzer Lehr Tank units
15mm WW2 , German , Grenadier unit.
28mm. Sudan , British . 36 Figure Infantry . KOSLI
28mm. Sudan , Egyptian/Sudanese 48 Figure infantry, gendarmes
28mm Sudan, Beja , about 100 figured
28mm terrain , for Necromunda
Well that looks pretty busy ,...and of course no plan survives first contact. Though at present nothing else is piquing the interest, well maybe something horse and musket related but who knows. Certainly all of that won’t get completed , but with a fair wind there will be some decent damage to it.
On a side note . I have been enjoying the latest “Setting the Scene’ book by Pat Smith . All good sound technique , and well photographed. Plus some extras from Nick aka Molterie .. all good stuff. Recommend.
It's that time of year, and of course you need more dervish
ReplyDeleteof course I do!
DeleteSounds like you've got your plans well in hand, but they seem distinctly light on 28mm Sudan stuff - go on, buy more, you know you want to! :)

DeleteThanks for the mention with the book, I hope it helps.
ReplyDeleteNecromunda brings back fond memories and you can really go to town with the terrain making for this.
How do you rate the new version compared to the original?
Cheers,
Pat.
The book is a great resource. I think the production is even better than the first.
