Two hour wargames actual plays professional#
I didn't place (big surprise since I didn't know I was competing until about 30 seconds before I submitted my miniature), but it was very rewarding to realize a professional painter thought my work was good enough for a competition. Painter Shannon Stiltz even talked me into entering my Maelee MicroBabe into the painting competition. I did manage to go to Texicon 2015 and enjoy myself playing games and watching my son get bitten by the tabletop gaming bug. Add to that completing my son's homeschooling, getting him in college, re-purposing the classroom, and a zillion other drags on my leisure time, and I didn't have a chance to do much painting or gaming last year.

2015 began with the great Pipe Break and Identity Theft Caper (not related to each other) from which we are still recovering from. Talk about life getting in front of pleasure. You can see their first mission here at Board Game Geek. I've started a campaign following the crew of the B-17F "Miss Pfitt". The game is a bit repetitive, but I think that goes a long way to portraying the "99% boredom/1% sheer terror" aspect of war. You are simply along for the ride, carrying out the missions assigned to you and reacting to what happens. The game is different in that you really have no control over what happens. In Target for Today, you play the part of a crew of an American bomber as you carry out the bombing campaign against the Nazis. The game is the spiritual successor of B-17 Queen of the Skies. FNG: Tour Of Duty In FNG: Tour of Duty you’ll step into the dusty, muddy boots of a Grunt, a Boonierat who slogs through jungle and rice paddies, and fights house to house in Hue City and scores of villages and towns across Vietnam. I've really developed a liking for Legion Wargames' Target for Today. Rebel Minis is thrilled to announce the release of another Two Hour Wargames Classic. Here's what's included: Some actual technology history. A copy of that rule set, as well as gaming implements and miniatures, are required to play. I made some time to actually play some games lately. War Without End ( WWE) is a supplement for the game NUTS Europe 1944 by Two Hour Wargames. I've been debating whether to display photos of those here as I envisioned this blog showcasing 15s. While I haven't been painting 15s, I have been painting miniatures for Steve Jackson Games Ogre and Starfire Design Studio's Starfire. I can't even get near the paint table these days! Sheesh. That, and I inadvertently created a monster by introducing mt son to the world of wargaming (Warhammer 40k in his case) and painting miniatures.

It's been nearly a year since I last painted a 15mm miniature, primarily due to a complete lack of time to paint.
Two hour wargames actual plays skin#
These are some seriously beautiful sculpts that I used as practice on shading of skin tones. Well, after an very long and unexpected hiatus, I'm back with some photos of Copplestone Castings Barbarian Heroes.
