Just finished a mamoth 5 hour undercoating session with the air brush, black black black black uh!

Over it but got a lot of work done.

Bit's that Battle front didn't get right for several clients orders turned up but wrong.... again...... meh what you going to do?

Atleast they are reasonably quick if not all that accurate, several pieces were worse than the original (one char bis aerial being half the size it should have been packed with one that was the correct size.

Thousands resurected or Repairs done

Posted by BW Designs on April 3, 2012 at 7:40 AM Comments comments (0)

Most of the repairs of the fallen few have been completed with some replacment parts added, I don't think I will ever find some bits. Dispite vacuming the carpet several times I wasn't able to find two swords one spear and a jagpanther mudguard, and a truck cabin. Have they all gone to the place where pens die?

Currently working on some buildings in 28mm and 15mm and some 15mm chinese.

 

A minutes silence for the death of thousands.

In the age old tradition of it's funnier when it happens to someone else.

Please join me in a minutes silence for the death of thousands, My display cabinet in the man cave toppled over onto me while moving new shelving into the room, thousands met an untimely end.

I will be picking bits out of the carpet, wall and me then repainting and gluing things for months.

Sigh!

Cheers

Just completed and in posted in the Gallery, a pair of english medium and heavy mortar platoons and a platoon of english honey tanks. (the last pictures in the WWII Gallery)

Medium mortars are now I think a little bit better for flames of war, with extra flexability.

Flames of war version 3 playtest

Posted by BW Designs on March 15, 2012 at 6:40 AM Comments comments (0)

We had our first game of  flames of war version 3 today. Interesting that most of the anoying gamey problems looked to have been fixed. The book for the main is easy enough to navigate, with only a few things during our playtest holding up the game for any period of time. We are still not sure if planes shoot last in the shooting phase, index no help reading no help. I will search through the book again and see how I go. German africa armoured (6 platoons) against english light...

Saga the reckoning, the Saga playtest.

Posted by BW Designs on March 4, 2012 at 11:10 PM Comments comments (0)

We have had a few games of the new SAGA dark age skirmish game the other day.

3 point games due to not having enough figures for two four point games (4 points looks to be default size).

The rule set

The rules themselves are well presented, with nice bright pictures and diagrams.

It’s pretty much typical of the new style gamer porn coming out from all of the major rules producers, with the obvious exception of WRG and Phil barker:-)

The Game is your basic ...

Saxon army discount

Posted by BW Designs on March 4, 2012 at 6:30 PM Comments comments (0)

The Saxon army has been discounted, I have used the unpainted figures that were to go with it, in some other projects for people. Still a great painted army with a lot of figures.

Cheers
