Zona Alfa - A Club Donation
Finally Finished!
Hi everyone,
The project is now finished. I spent the day working on the storage box and it is now ready as well.
So what do I think of Speed paints in general? I think they are great for specific jobs that require speed. I don’t like painting this way, nor will I convert to Speed Paints or Contrast. They are just not my thing. I do not enjoy the process as much I do with my more conventional painting techniques and paints.
Having said that, if I ever decide to paint up the miniatures of one of my board games, like Blood Rage, I will definitely use these paints. So basically for any set of miniatures that are not handled exclusively by me.
The storage box is a Star Wars Legion starter set box. It comes from an order I made from Ebay Germany. It was for two boxes of Battletech miniatures and the seller sent them in this box. I kept it at the time thinking I it might come in useful one day. And so it did!
I fitted the miniatures inside the box and cut out compartments from cardboard for the figures. Since the box is quite deep, I made part of it into a two tier system. Overall it is a cheap yet sturdy solution for a club project.
There you have it. A game system ready to be taught, demoed and played at our club. I will leave this project open for now because I will use it to display my Zona Alfa team when I get around to painting them.
I hope you enjoyed this little journey with me and I hope this makes you think of playing the game or giving it a go.
Until next time, may your lasergun batteries never run out.

(P.S. Oh no, I have to go back and paint up more 10mm Elf cavalry. Aaaargh!)
Congratulations @nightrunner your figures are fabulous looking for gaming with.
Thank you @zorg. Always happy to hear your opinion. These figures were donated to my club so everyone can play. I have been giving demos over the weekend and it is a small hit. Just needs more exposure – but as they say ‘small steps’.
Also the first time I used Speedpaints. I was amazed at how fast I got them to a tabletop standard.
Best regards,

Yes i think the speedpaints will have a big influence on everyone to get painted up games going.
