Game table in action, more to come!

 There is now a glimmer of activity on the game table and there are plans for more action.

completed only the day before, the Sisters of Battle
take to the field!

the moment the camera came out ... many 1's

the tank came out well

combined with the older minis I did a few years ago

busy action

I even did some 'mud' flocking on the tank treads

good day for the boys in getting their 40K collections
on the tabletop

Meanwhile ... I continued painting.

now the base color and inks are done

Also, there was discussion about more tabletop action, including putting Napoleonic forces on the table on December 4.

A new years game weekend is also in progress.

Great to have the games back in action.

Rainy day game

 My son and a group of his fellow 40K players came over today and had an outdoor distanced game of 40K today.

The rain did not stop them from having a good days game.

My son's fully painted big models are starting to put on a good show

Workbench: WH40K for my son

I had a little commission from my eldest son to do up some WH40K units for him.

some sort of battle angels - I was suggested Athena like uniforms - did them in white jumpsuits and silvery wings/jetpacks

the newbies

flame thrower crew

two veterans (one similar to the battle angels)

Command group with a flag bearer and an engineer

It was a fun little diversion to go into the sci fi world again.

Next up, looks like more ECW, likely Scots are looking ready to field some pike & shotte units, while the border horse is also ready to drop on the painting table.

Some rumblings of fantasy stuff are still out there with the Nanaimo crew, so I may be going through the storage and seeing what is there in detail.

Little wars ... with little men

My youngest son has had some time with the RISK pieces on the floor ...

RISK pieces form a battle formation

With the Cavalry in columns, infantry in mass and doing crew duty with the guns along with a few scouting parties to van and flank ... do you think he's been influenced by the SHAKO games at all?
