About the Project
After a long break from the hobbie I find myself returning in my late 30s. As a teenager I played 40K, Necromunda & Gorka Morka. I also had a bit of Warhammer Fantasy stuff. But I am brought back by Dungeons & Dragons. As a teenager I had no interest in DND but never really knew what it was. After curiously listening to some DND podcasts I realised that it was a rather interesting thing. Well once my kids heard about DND they wanted to play! So out came the Lego and some rules were quickly created. This was the start of our first Role Play game.

This Project is On Hold
From Blocks to Rocks
Lego was great for making scenery. With the move to minis I have a long list of stuff to make.
- I’m going to be taking inspiration from Puzzlewood for my forest bits.
Just using cut up polystyrene packaging with some stones stuck on. Then covering it all with toilet roll soaked in PVA.
From zombies to ZOMBIES
With the Adventurers table ready it was time for generic foes.
I’ve gone down the zombie route. They are nice and fun for the family to chop up without morale issues arising.
Some Otherworld zombies 
Padding out the numbers with some old Necromunda zombies I quickly realised I needed more zombies. You can never really have enough zombies.
An unexpected birthday present solved the problem in the form of GW deadwalker zombies.
Batch painted in an evening that turned into the morning From Lego to Miniatures
After a successful start to the family Role Play Campaign. It seemed like a good excuse to buy some minis.
To my surprise there are lots of different companies producing minis now. Also loads of different games.
After a lot of looking I found some minis that matched the Lego team the wife and kids created.
Just a couple of weapon swaps got some Otherworld miniatures to look the part.
