I have been painting too much recently trying to catch up on things I'd like to do wargaming wise. The months in the US obviously didn't help in that respect. But I'm diligently hacking through plastic, resin and white metal.
I've just finished the Japanese figures I took to the US.
Due to concentrating on the painting I have quite a few bases to complete in the coming week.

I also finished the US cavalry for my Tombstone Tinderbox Wild West.
My thinking changed slightly on these and I'm having to revisit basing for 8 figures. That would give me leeway as to their use. Because?
I bought Pony Wars, the rules for warfare on the plains of America.

There should be 30 figures of each but 3 riders have gone absent without leave. I assume the prospect of death on the plains isn't something they thought about before joining.
I'll be looking to raise a tribe or two of the plains to stop the encroachment of settlers and miners and their minders, the US cavalry
Plenty more to publish, especially some buildings which I'm happy with.
Thank you for dropping by

Those Japanese civilians look great!
ReplyDeleteYou might want to add a "Followers" widget to the blog, even though I see it dates back to 2013.

Thank you. Coming from you that is a huge compliment. I thought about followers a long time ago but discounted out. It isn't the most important thing for me, though I am glad people come to see my hobby page.
ReplyDeleteI consider myself a pretty average painter, really. I paint wargames units (and lots of them, LOL), so three tone shading is largely wasted on such figures. You do have the option to use the services to follow your posts, but the follower widget is easy to install and use. It's not so much about ego, as making it easier for folks to know when you have posted something new. :-)
