Just starting out in life again. Let's see where we end up! Perhaps the most boring bsky profile...but it's mine and that's enough for me.

Some pics of the completed proxy 40K project. More terrain/scenic pieces to follow. Figs are a mix of Stargrave, GW, Oathmark, cheap prints from eBay and vehicles are Temu.

Peasants added to my mini Medieval skirmish project. Kept very simple with just a nod towards their leader's livery colours. I've still not decided on rules but most likely Pillage or Assassins & Templars modified to C13th England.

Just a few pics from last night's game. We played a simplified Fornovo in 28mm using a OHW variant. Great game a win for the Italians...though there were a few tricky moments for them!

A little 28mm PULP game (30s Egypt) played last night. Mayhem as various parties searched for artifacts, battled Cultists...and each other!
The Belgians (led by Hercules Parrot) came out victorious....whilst we learnt that Miss Marble is a psychopath! Great fun had by all.

Bit busy with work/life stuff at the mo so not much hobby time. Saying that..here's a little taster pic of what's up next. Been a long time since I've painted any 28mm Sci-Fi...almost finished the first batch of figures and about to start on some scenary.

Bought the "Thud Ridge" set from TDM recently but subsequently decided I didn't want to game Vietnam....so here are Greek F4s, A7s and Albanian MiG 19s and 21s for a 'what if' 1980s conflict. Quick and easy paint job.

Another OHW session..28mm Italian Wars. Great game that seemed, initially, to be very one-sided but swung to and fro until a much deserved Papal States win.

Played a late WW2 game using OHW rules. Tested the rules by increasing the number of units per side (12 Russ, 9 Germ rather than usual 6/side) and added a couple of new units (Armd Car, Scouts, MMG).. a great game that went all the way to T15...a solid German win!!

Today's 28mm WW1 game using One Hour Wargames rules. British attacking German trenches...ultimately repulsed and then counter attacked. Great fun, cheers to Pete for use of his custom terrain and brilliant figs and to Ben for battling through Illness.
