I just can’t seem to get focused on any one project and go with it. Here’s what I’ve managed to finish up over the last few weeks…
(Remember: click on the pictures
for a bigger version):
Our first Mutants and Death Ray Guns game got me briefly motivated to paint up a few old
Grenadier post-apocalyptic figures…
I need more “survivors” that
AREN’T armed with guns!
I also finished reading Fear
and Faith and started reading Kooky
Teenage Monster Hunters which briefly motivated me to finish up this
Hasslefree
Miniatures knock off of Willow.
(I haven’t finished reading Kooky
Teenage Monster Hunters as I was distracted by the arrival of Ted
Rall’s new book…)
I am thinking I would like to
run a few horror games for Halloween.
On that spooky Halloween theme…
a Reaper Bones
cheap and easy bat swarm.
More Reaper
Bones – FIRE!
A few Black
Tree Design Ancient Greeks (because that’s what the kids and I are
reading about in our survey of world history… Hopefully there will be more of
these over the next two months or so…).
Battle
Honors Great War British infantryman because… y’know… 100th
anniversary and all that.... (and the Lead Adventure Great War Painting Club)
Brigade
Games Great War Indian Infantryman. Ditto.
Great
War Miniatures Great War French cavalry officer.
I have at least been getting in some boardgaming lately – a
LOT of boardgaming!
WE finished up reading about
ancient Mesopotamia for the time being with a chapeter on NebuchadnezzarII and
the hanging gardens he built for his Persian wife Amytis, so we busted out Hanging
Gardens.
I also read Shadow Over
Innsmouth with the kids – so we busted out Innsmouth
Escape - which I’ve had for a few years but was waiting for the stars
to be right to play…. (I asked Amanda and the kids to do their best Deep One
impression for the photo – Amanda kind of really nailed the Innsmouth look
there… almost worries me a little…).
I also recently picked up Cthuhu:
Hastur La Vista Baby. The game is set in Kingsport, so I’m trying to
think of which Lovecraft tales were set there that I could read with the kids
before we crack this one… Any ideas?
Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:
Ugh… who knows… at the rate I’m painitng it will be a couple
weeks before I post any freshly painted figures… perhaps there will be a game
report in the meantime.
I think I'd be worried about the mrs too!!!! Love the greek sheild!!
