'A Tale of Four Gamers'

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Eight bases of Loa cavalry leash highlights, metal work, black wash on that, then leatherwork done tonight.
Wood and metal highlights tomorrow, then facings and buttons.

Last night was detail work, my word it was a lot of work for not much obvious progress, but looking again in daylight, wow.    I blame the sculptor!

Nothing painted since I completed the US WW2 in 28mm but loads of assembly and undercoating of various things ahead of painting including US Jeeps, an M8 an M20, a StUG III, a platoon of FJR and a half platoon of British infantry, four more CoC jump off points added to the mix.

Next up a British Airborne Platoon including all the support options in 28mm.

After that it will be support and command options for the FJR and British Infantry platoon, a couple more Kraut tanks, and a few artillery pieces also for the Krauts.

Trying to get as much assembled and undercoated before the perpetual rain sets in for the next six months!

A lot of this effort is being stimulated by my son suddenly taking an interest in wargaming at the age of 18. We have our first proper wargame this Friday with beer and pizza

Good thinking

Bases sand/pva and inked last night and today. 16 Tumbling Dice 1/1200 Roman Galleys built this pm too.

[Ithoriel]

1/1200?

Have you upscaled them or have I missed a range on their website?

[Leman]

finish reading this lot, move out of comfy armchair and go and paint.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

No, they are 1/2400, I misread it!

What rules are you planning for the galleys?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Not sure yet. Maybe the new Osprey ones or A&A Games Engineering 'Salemis et Actium'?

[Leman]

Made it to paint up the 3mm Union figures and a 15mm 1914 tourer.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Loa bases painted, highlighted and pva sealed.

Thanks, I'm still searching for good rules for large scale actions with Galleys 

[Techno]

Aztec figures all but done...(One left to finish off.....He's 95% done.)

Some back banners still to do...But not all in one go.
