Hello and welcome to my humble Blog! (Or something like that)
Like many wargamers around the world I struggle with the idea of beginning half the projects I want to - never mind actually completing them! With this in mind I have resolved to start Blogging about all the miniature-related crap that I do and that spills out of my head.
As I am hoping this Blog will spur me on with some of my ongoing projects the sensible place to start seems to be with the new Sedition Wars: Battle for Alabaster minis which arrived on Monday. I think it's a wonderful little package - I'll leave those with more experience to review it in full.
Here's my first test mini - both as a test of the paint-scheme and my photography skills:
What a wonderful start - look at that mould-line!! It really isn't that noticeable in person (and certainly won't be from the angle I will be playing at) but its just the sort of thing that I'm hoping to force myself to improve on. Looking at this test-piece again I decided it was a little bit too blue and decided to have another go - this time without wasting a nice fresh mini...
Much happier with the colours this time, but perhaps a touch more blue is needed. This time though I just don't care about wasting a mini as I have no idea where this one even came from!!!
Well I hope this start gives some indication of what this Blog is likely to be like - the first post features a game which I have yet to play (I'm a 40k man normally) and above and beyond that features a miniature that isn't even from the games own range. Come back next time for even more off-topic ramblings!
