Goulburn Valiant Stormers

"White Lead Elephant, car boot swap meet"

24th of July , Saturday 10 am -3pm
8 Railway Parade Marulan.



Weather permitting..it will be quite cold but should be dry...


Bring a blanket card table whatever and all the stuff you are going to NEVER read, paint or play with and sell trade or swap with others of a like mind discuss what you intend to bring or what you intend to pick up on this thread here http://passageoflines.50.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=1220.


We can get about 25 cars into the backyard so there should be enough room? A goodly distance between Canberra (1 hr 20mins) and Sydney (1 hour 40 mins) ..sausage sizzle coffee and tea available at the location and local eateries and coffee are part of the general ambiance.


Bring lots of bags or boxes to carry home your loot and lots of small notes, it is very hard to get change around here . Bring a raincoat and an umbrella and don't park on the railway side of the road, you will get a golfball through your windscreen!

cheers

"Kingmaker 2010"

Well only a few members made it up this month so only five players for the sheildwall games, and I managed to take some bad pics and get a drubbing with my Flemish, but the good company and lunch made up for my misery. Louis and Guy won both games so a draw after all for first place. After we finnished we played 1/72 scale Wings of War with Marks fast play WOW with dice, Marks Rohden Gothas were huge and his Se5s, Fe2s were excellent along with a great range of early german kit. Five of us played and it was great fun, Sam was excited to shot down Boyd in his fancy Albatross, and I got mark on a single dice roll of 100! All of us have promised to paint our hordes of unpainted plastic ww1 aircraft we have around the place and get them on the table in the next few months. I have added the few pictures that did work out below. I have on the painting desk at the moment more 20mm germans, more 28mm Sassanids and some successor Greeks and ancient German cavalry as roman allies.

Australian Light Horse & Kreigsmarine

Been painting a lot of other peoples stuff so I thought I would post some of my work.Wartime Australian Light Horse, some 20mm German kreigsmarine chaindogs for the Guild painting comp too.

currently working on for myself some more ACW Mark Fenlon 28mm and some Langton ACW Ironclads which I should have done for this weekend. Next back to 18th century for a while and maybe some more ww2.

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

cheers

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!
