About Me

A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Monday Workbench 07 May



I just thought I'd do a quick post to show you what I decided to go with next for painting. As you can see from the pic, I opted to do the Papuans. So far I've got all the base coats done (apart from the camo on the Owen guns). I'll be doing the highlights over the next couple of evenings.

After these I think I'll carry on with the Aussies. That should keep me busy for a week or two!

  1. Nice one! I really like such an exotic subject for a project. And there is a Dutch connection with Papua New Guinea so...

  3. Nice, maybe a light semi gloss varnish would make them look sweaty!

  5. @ Sander - they are an uncommon group of soldiers, but definitely very interesting. Not to mention a bit of a challenge to paint - dark skin and white kilts :)

    @ Swelter - thanks! The stretcher team are a fairly recent release from Eureka [as are the Papuan infantry] :)

    @ Herkybird - that's what I was thinking :)

    @ Lee - well, there are quite a lot of them, I'm doing at least 2 levels of highlighting and I only have an hour or two each evening ;)
