About Me

My photo
London, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
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).

AHPC9 Day 7

I'm back from the peace and calm of Sussex! I had a wonderful Christmas break with my sister - lots of good food, fresh air and a teensy-weensy* bit of alcohol.

* if you believe that, then perhaps you would be interested in purchasing this limited edition £10 note - yours for fifty quid...

It seems that my second Challenge entry was posted on Saturday, but hadn't shown up until after I left London on Sunday. That might explain why there were very few comments on it. Here's the teaser pic:


And here's the link.

These are 28mm figures from Bad Squiddo Games. They were painted up at the same time as my entry for the first bonus theme round, but I can't show pics of them for a week or so.

Now that I'm back, I will be hitting the brushes again tomorrow. I've already got the figures and paints I'll need out so that I can crack on with them first thing tomorrow.

    Hi Kiddo!
    Since you've purchased a few things from Annie at Bad Squiddo,, have you looked at the female Soviet soldiers she stocks? They're great and lend themselves to a number of great war game uses. I have a platoon that we are using to replay the fight shown in the mini-series "The Dawns here Are Quiet." The stuff in the photos so far are top notch. Well done - as usual.

    Merry Christmas and happy new year.
    You seem to be tearing along with the hobby challenge; I can’t keep up with the posts! 😀

    Glad you had a Happy Christmas! I spent mine building AMX-13's, I hope they come out as nice as your figures when I get round to painting the little blighters!

    @ Fran - thanks! :)

    @ Phil - merci! :)

    @ Jerry - cheers! I have previously painted up some of Annie's Soviet women - looking back, I'm not overly happy with how they came out so I might repaint them. :)

    @ Stew - and to you too! I find that setting aside an hour a day helps to keep up with everyone's posts. It gets easier once the "free fire" period ends as there aren't so many posts every day. For me, I have a reputation to keep up of commenting on just about every post! :)

    @ Herkybird - cheers! AMX-13s? Are you doing Indo-Chine?

    @ Miles - thanks! My "Pile of Potential" post should give a good indication of what might be rolling off my paint table over the next few months :)
