NW Europe 1944

On the weekend we played a Rapid Fire 20mm game, and I didn't supply a single figure and only the telegraph poles and some entrenchments and wire so a light load to transport for once. I managed to take eighty odd pictures so i have selected a few of my favourites for veiwing.

Darkest Africa/ Pulp Warriors

These foundry figures were painted for our "up the Waa-Zooo" club pulp game for Feburary, I had such a great time painting these guys I almost bought a bunch of Marsi off foundry direct. I am not sure I will use these guys for some time so they will probaly make it onto the top shelf of the display cabinet.



I need to take some better photos of the remaining figures so I can get a group shot

Which Witch Doctor

Some of may favourites lately have been some of the pulp stuff I have been painting, a nice change from historicals. A selection of witch doctors from foundry. It reminds me of a play I was in acting in “dr Livingston I presume “ the witch doctor scene

Pulp Communist Zombies

Some pulp Communist Zombies sent to me by John Jenkins after I won the caption contest 4. I don't think they are available again as yet, I like the Zombie being choked by the balloon and the accordian player, they have sat on my painting desk for about six months before I just decided to finish them a few weeks ago for a pulp game!

Sassanid Kamândâr-î Payâhdag and Yarsan javelin.

Sassanid Archers and Javelin

Well life gets in the way sometimes and I have been painting a bunch but not taking any pictures so here are some of the latest minis off the desk. The Archers rom the very fine A and A Sassanid range and the javelin are from the Black Tree design range.

They Followed the Plume!

Welcome this blog will be dedicated to my Ancients, Medievals, and Renaissance, horse and musket colonial, Pulp, ww1, ww2, Cold War and modern projects that take up my painting time.

Why "Storm and conquest" as a title, well storming castles and conquesting nations of course! !


All of my armies are in 20mm (WW1, WW2, Cold War and moderns) or 28mm and come from a wide variety of maufacturers. This year I intend finnishing my Roman Republicans hastati and some cavalry along with a few allies , my WOTR army cavalry and more infantry, My Sassanids and my 3rd cent Romans, and some Rennaissance figures all for Wab, along with WW1 and WW2 stuff and a little Pulp.

On the planning and purchasing front more Renaissance for the Italian wars and more Sassanids.

This year looking forward to attending a few conventions the WAB 2.0 rules, playtesting a few sets of rules for mates and my Slingshot subscription, and possibly releasing my new miniature ranges.

Cheers
