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.

Algernon Pulls It Off! A set if WWI air rules.

 So I am going to try out this ruleset and see how it plays. I had gotten rid of all my 1:285 WWI aircraft awhile ago, but I keep feeling the call to come back to it. It really, really helped that 3D printing has come along, and that dudes out there that are printing are getting smarter on the resin mix so they're not so brittle. So I purchased a bunch from a guy and I couldn't be happier.

Below are some of the DH2's I just painted up for the British, and one photo has a dogfight with an Albatros D.II (which is a metal aircraft). 







As always thanks for looking.

Cheers
Kevin

    Dude... you forgot to finish the middle of the things!

    So, I went looking for some actual photos of a DH2 and I see that you have indeed completed the middle!

    So these are 1:285? So much detail! You have done a fine job painting as always. Looks like great fun!!!

    Thanks Skip, I couldn't believe how much time I spent on each one. Not quite as long as a 28mm figure but close!

    Cheers

    Those tiny birds look great, I would go blind trying to paint them!
