I LIIIIIIIIIIVE!

Although I am sure that many doubted it. I do live! What have I been up to? Oh, y'know. Dark Heresy-ing it up, playing some 40k, working on some 15mm Carthaginians. I don't have many of them, and nobody else plays Field of Glory in San Marcos. But they look pretty cool, and there's a group in Austin that does it. It's something I might look at sometime. I picked up the rulebook and the 'Rise of Rome' army list compendium for pretty cheap.

Here are the pictures. I hand painted the shields. They look fine at 3 feet away, but aren't so grand up-close. They make decals, which I'll probably wind up getting so they look nice. These are Libyan spearmen, the standard heavy infantry of Carthage.

I don't think they look half bad. Next time I'll post about my 15mm Flames of War Germans I've got. But for now, back to theoretically the reason you read this blog...


WARHAMMER!!!!!

My beautiful fiance is buying me an Imperial Sector boxed set for my birthday, which I am extremely excited about. I've decided I'm going to re-do my Cadians with a more urban look. Theorizing that a Cadian expeditionary force rushed to an Urban warzone would more easily get new BDUs than special urban armour, they have kept their traditional OD Green flak vests and helmets but gotten spiffy new grey clothing. I'm going to do more work on urbanizing the bases when I have the proper equiptment, but for now, enjoy my first trio. I've decided to name them as I go. This should be fun. Many of you will recognize at once the Infamous Jenkins...

Please forgive the terrible eyes. They were painted on by their previous owner and I'm busy repainting cloth. It's not like anybody notices the model's eyes from three feet above the tabletop.

So yeah, there we go. There's an update. Expect more to follow before long.
