OK, had a few hours sleep so now a little more coherent and playing catch-up on the thread.
@a27cromwell nice work on those Russian cav conversions 😉 very nice feel to the colouring on the horses. It’s nice that you went to the effort of correcting the scale on the T-34 turret. I don’t think I would have noticed on the finished tank until someone had pointed it out but once you see the turrets side by side the initial one does look quite undercooked. Curious to see how the marine turns out.
@woldenspoons what are your thoughts on the Rogue trader scenery? I have some of the Mantic equivalent and was toying with the idea of using it and doing up a space hulk type layout for Kill Team (because clearly I need more terrain projects… ;-/ ) For a failed pledge that sounds really successful 🙂 Looking forward to hearing about the campaign!
@mage nice work on the D&D minis. are you tempted to try anything with the translucent parts on the minis? I haven’t been game to attempt yet. A nice mix of projects you have going on at the moment 🙂
@elessar2590 personally looking forward to getting stuck into some Sharp Practice so will follow your campaigns with some interest 🙂 Really liking the look of the rules set and the fact it can be applied to so many theatres/periods. I like the idea of the total war games but I personally don’t find the unit interface and movement controls particularly intuitive with the one game in the series I own (Total war Warhammer) – guess I just need more practice. having said that it is really nice to have political and economic spheres directly integrated into a war game.
@querion I remember mechwarrior 🙂 Nice nostalgia hit there. it was good in that it integrated into the main Battletech game seamlessly- that was one thing that Fasa did well actually, all the games could act a bolt-on supplements for one another effectively. Wow, that drum is massive – the greenskins should put stocks in front of it which can be removed as a last resort to roll the drum across the table as a terror weapon to break enemy lines 🙂
@sundancer nice progress on Solo and the rebels. Enjoying seeing how the SWL is coming along. Nice progress on the terrain too! I like the rivets on the sides of the tower. Does a great job of breaking up the look of the surface 🙂
@irishsteve hope you are settling back in OK 🙂 Best of luck playing around with the airbrush. Do you have all the stuff to clean it on hand and ready to go? When I started I found I was spending 3 times longer cleaning it than actually using it…
@limburger do you have a kill team decided on to play? Or are you enjoying going through the lists etc for now? Not sure if a RPG bootcamp could be possible but the idea of an interactive live stream event could maybe work? your D&D character sounds fun 🙂 My favorite character was a Human Dread necromancer. I’m sure that she and Arnold would have gotten along splendidly together 😛
