The Zhodani Commando: Blacksite Studios: Lunar

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.

Blacksite Studios: Lunar

Been a few months since I've painted any models for the game Lunar. These are some new releases from Blacksite Studios. JAXA astronauts. I had no idea that Japan even had a space program, but hey they do!

JAXA stands for Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. They have a mission to build a lunar base in late 20's, but I think, if it happens at all, it will be more like late 30's. I do hope it happens in my life time. I think that would be awesome!

The paint scheme I chose was from the card art. I like it because it reminds me of the Japanese WW2 naval uniforms. Here are my five astronauts I've done for JAXA faction so far....
