The Zhodani Commando: November 2015

Blog discription

What will you find here? Ramblings from an aging gamer-miniature painter. When I first started out in this hobby computers were in their infancy and finding other gamers could only be done by going to conventions or as in my case bumping into somebody who happened to see me reading "Panzer Leader" on the school bus. Look how far we have come! The internet has allowed our small community to be able to connect on a level I never dreamed of when I was but a small lad. What I do hope you will find here is something interesting from one wargamer/miniature painter to another. I paint miniatures somewhat decently, so I will be posting some pictures of my work, and perhaps a review or two of games and/or miniatures. Most of all this is just about having fun and anything I post here is meant to be for that reason.

Showcase: Warlord/Meganobz in Mega Armor

Finished another piece for my 40K Ork Army. It's from Games Workshops Ork Meganobz kit, and I've built this one to use as my Warlord.

Showcase: A Samurai to lead my Yamagata Masakage Ashigaru unit for Saga

This figure was built from Wargames Factory Samurai box set. While they are not the best sculpts or easy to put together, they do paint up really nice. I painted this one today to get a break from Warhammer 40K painting I've been doing. It was good to get back to painting a historical figure.

Showcase: Tau Fire Warriors strike team

The new Tau Codex has come out and I love the new paint style. I like the Tau because of their Gundam feel, and this paint job just accents it even more. I basically painted these like Games Workshop has with a few minor changes, not anywhere near as good as their painters, but I like it.

Showcase: Killa Kan madness continued...

Finished up my box of three Ork Killa Kans. Wow, that was more of a chore than I thought it would be. I need six of them, but think I will take a break and paint something else before I tackle this one again. I posted a completed one and few weeks back so this will be just pictures of the other two.
