A parcel for me !

Over the past week I've looked at every parcel that has turned up and every time it has the wife's name on it (she's doing the kiddies x-mas pressie shopping on line). 

But yesterday the box had my name on it. Inside was the Lich Lord nickstarter - £35 offer.

and for that I received the Lich Lord book, the Cultist figures, the Lich lord and apprentice, dark cauldron pack, a Templar and Frost Wraith figures and a sprue of Frostgrave soldiers.

A good buy from my first kickstarter. Along with the loot from Warfare (which I'll post tomorrow) the collection is growing - along with the unpainted mountain.

As usual thanks for dropping by.

A second helping of Frostgrave

Time was had and the models finished.

Here's the warband and an extra member.The warband consists of 1 x Thief,   4 x Thugs, 1 x Crossbowman, 1 x Infantryman & 1 x Knight.The extra figure is a Ranger. The Knight doesn't look quite how I thought he should, armour etc but he'll do for the moment.

 

The second warband will have a similar composition but they'll have a red collar piece/hood so my boy can identify his figures quickly (or is it for me!).

 

Warefare at the weekend - I should be there on Sunday spending again.

 

A Little bit of Frostgrave

Well no blog for over a month now and little time for painting etc.as I've been working many 12 hour days during th last couple of months.But this weekend has been a nice restful one of 4 days - with some sleep caught up on and finally some painting done as well.

I've started on a couple of warbands for Frostgrave, one for myself and one for the eldest boy so we can enjoy a game together hopwfully soon. Progress has been made and hope to have some pics later today of the first of these warbands.

As I was looking through my box of 28mm spares I found the two figures below which I thought would make a good pair for the leaders of a warbound.

The wizard in blue is from a TSR box set from 88 ish and the other is a Rincewind model from the 90's.

15mm AWI Artillery

A bit remiss of me as I finished of these field guns and battalion guns a few weeks ago but have only just round to getting the pictures on here and the blogger software on my android device has been playing up for the last few days.

As usual these Peter Pig figures were nice to paint up with little mold lines or flash, the only problem I encountered was when spraying the Matt varnish it greyed up heavily ( it was raining ). I painted over quite a bit of it and was reasonably happy with the result.

Thanks for taking a look.

4GROUND FABLED REALMS

At colours last weekend I picked up a RUINS OF DALDORR kit. This was the 1st woodern kit for me and was not sure how it would go together as I can be all cack handed. Well I'm happy to say the kit was a joy to build with clear instructions (in colour) and parts that went together nicely. I was even instructed on where to place clamps and pegs. 
A few images of the finished ruin are attached.
So I'll be looking out for some more of this splendid range and maybe some in 15mm.

Thanks for stopping by.

Colours @ Newbury

I had a day out at the races today - well Colours at Newbury racetrack to be precise. I took my eldest boy along and he bought a bargain from the bring and buy, 42 figures for a fiver. Most were ok, some were painted but he was happy. Well he is 7!
I got my self some frostgrave rules and figures and a few other little bits.

The show was busy at first but the afternoon was a bit quieter and easier to get around. I enjoyed the day and glad the show was back on the calendar.
