Second Batch of the Year Assortment

This group of figures are the second batch off the paint table this year. First up is this canoe and Frontiersmen. This 28mm piece is from Warlord Games French and Indian War line.


Next up is this English Civil War light gun. This 28mm metal set is also from Warlord Games. This was a nice little piece that assembled and painted up nice and easy.


And finally is this Watchtower. This set is from Games Workshop and I believe I got it in a trade with Bob a few years ago. It sat in the basement for a couple years then moved into my paint room where it sat for a year and now it's finally done!



I've seen the little shack either on the side on situated on top of the tower. I think I prefer it off to the side.

Counterblast Mekkus and a Rabblerouser

My next post for the year is a collection of figures from the Mekkus faction from Bombshell Miniatures Counterblast game. The Mekkus are machines that turned on their creators, wiped them out and decided to try wiping out everyone else in the galaxy. A friendly lot.
First up is the Central Command Unit.


This figure is all metal and is quite a hefty piece.

Next up is a resin Artificer. Artificers are basically repair units.


Next is a pair of metal Defenders. The one on the left has Gamma Disruptors and the other has Particle Blasters.


Next is a group of resin and metal Harvesters. The two on the left have Particle Blasters while the other two carry Gamma Disruptors.


And finally is the Seeker, a stealth scout unit.



And here are all of them together.

And finally here is a Rabblerouser. This is from Warlord Games Fire and Brimstone pack.


'Til next time.

Indians, Genestealers & King Charles

So it's been a while since I've posted. I haven't died, just busy doing other things. But I have got a few things finished recently. So a number of months ago I acquired all the French & Indian War box sets from my friend Jonathan. The first box I started on was a box of Indians. These figures are metal and from Warlord Games (ex-Conquest Miniature figs). Please excuse the crap pics, I've pretty much given up trying to take decent pics.

These figs are awesome. Out of the 19 figures in the set only one of them has a duplicate. I just hope my paint job does them some justice. 


I'm running a game of Space Hulk at next week's St. Albert Games day, so I decided to paint up the figures. The paint job isn't super awesome, but it's definitely good enough for a board game.

Pretty sure these are generally 28mm figs. I think I can safely say that I don't want to paint any more Genestealers.

A couple years ago in the Analogue Hobbies yearly painting challenge, Jonathan and I had a challenge to see who painted the most early-World War II figures. The loser had to paint a figure for the winner. I was looking to win the challenge when off the top rope Joanthan came with an elbow and beat me right at the last moment. That was late-winter 2017. So I finally got a figure done for Jonathan. Please the excuse the awful pic as I did it with my phone.

This base is a command base for Jonathan's English Civil War army. It's King Charles and the King's Guard ensign. A pair of nice metal figs from Warlord Games.

Next on my paint table is the other half of Space Hulk - 12 Terminators. After that I'm not sure, I think I'm going to work on some terrain.
