Superheros and Distractions

Saturday, July 8th, 2006

Of course, the moment I post about concentrating on a project I get distracted from it by getting some stock of our new Superhero and Fantasy ranges and deciding to paint some of the Superheroes for Display.

Super Team Alpha

I think that they came out very well. I’ve painted them up as belonging to the same super team.

Getting Organised

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

I have painted very little over the last month and gamed very little due to illness (I have a recurrent viral problem that brings on myalgia) and also due to work, Black Hat Miniatures taking up my time and so on.

I have finally started to paint again and have decided to take a leaf out of another fellow Woking resident’s book, Matakashi, and to work on a set project.

I have a fair amount of Games Workshop Lord of the Rings figures and most of the supplements but have been collecting and painting fairly haphazardly. I have now decided to concentrate on building up all the forces to play all the scenarios in the Scouring of Shire supplement.

It has the advantage of requiring relatively few figures and has some very fun scenarios in it.

I have started by painting up 8 hobbit archers. Pictures and details of the project to come on on the Scouring of the Shire project page in the next week.
