In December the first part of
our Reaper
CAV Kickstarter showed up. I got in on the kickstarter to set me and
the kids up with some giant fighting robots so we could play Samurai
Robot Battle Royale. I painted
one in December and have been working, on and off, on a few others –
as well as a few other micro sci-fi things I’ve dug out of the lead/plastic pile…
(Remember: click on the pictures
for a bigger version):
Reaper
Miniatures plastic CAV walker of some sort. I wasn’t totally happy
with the warm colour camouflage on the
previous one so I went with a more traditional camouflage scheme…
Using that same scheme I painted
up a few self-propelled artillery from Ground
Zero Games (I think… I picked them up off ebay a few years back…)
I also dug out some old Games Workshop
Epic Eldar to have a crack at.
One Eldar Falcon Squadron
Another Eldar Falcon Squadron
Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:
I have quite the assortment of
stuff on the workbench at the moment… more Micro SF stuff… a Great War Canadian
battalion… Deep Ones and Deep One Hybrids… hard to tell what will get finished
first as none of them are really pressing.
I’d really like to get back into
some actual GAMING with the miniatures… but things are a bit of a mess in the
games room and it’s just too easy to plop down a boardgame and play that
instead…
Nice work on all of those Tim. I particularly like the Epic Eldar. Epic 40k is one of those games I wish I had got into at the time. Oh well plenty of new games always coming out.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mark! No reason why you still couldn't get into Epic. Lots of this stuff still floating around. If you are patient and willing to check ebay regularly these things come up in lots that aren't so crazy expensive as what most people seem to want to try and sell them for...
DeleteFan-freaking-tastic Tim!
ReplyDeleteHopefully that was enough to motivate me to prep the 20-some minis out of the Battletech Intro Box Set.
thanks Eric! Stay tuned - there should be some more in the not-too-distant future!
DeleteNice work as always, Tim. I'm considering a few smaller (micro) scale projects and this is inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dean! I am definitely looking forward to seeing what you can do with some micro stuff!
