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.

World War One: The French 1916 - 1918

 I am closing in on finishing a project for Anton. 12 French finished out of 25 (I threw in a flamethrower as a bonus, because hey everyone needs a flamethrower). These are plastic Wargames Atlantic figures and while I will always prefer metal, these aren't bad. I like them better than the Russians I did (hint Anton, never ask me to paint Russians again... British, French, German okay, but never Russians). 

So here are the first 12. Enjoy.





As always thanks for looking.

Cheers
Kevin

  1. Oh, Zhodani, the Brits are just as painfully dreary in their wretched khaki .....I'm painting some now and hating every moment. Your French are delightful, I can't wait to see them in-person

  2. WOW! These look GREAT! I love the weathering/mud/wear on their lower coat tails and pants. Amazing work there. Well done!

  3. You did a great job on these. They have a dirty grimdark appearance. I especially like the gas mask.
