I got my first batch of 95th back from my painter last night - very nice they are, too.They're from either the now defunct Alban Miniatures or Offensive Miniatures - I think the latter - except the mounted officer, who is, I'm fairly sure, Foundry, and the bloke in the top hat and stolen Rifles jacket, who is from Eagle Miniatures' Spanish guerrillas. Huge thanks to Tom, who clearly sees and wields a brush better than I do :D
In other news, becoming fed up of how easily the newer Army Painter paints separate, such that your first squeeze from a bottle of (say) Desert Yellow can be completely clear, I bought a paint shaker (OK, Amazon sell them as nail varnish shakers, but since neither the wife or I paint our nails, it won't get misappropriated, which is more than can be said for at least two kitchen knives so far :D)In other other news.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: If the only means you have of getting news about Peterborough Wargames Club is reading my blog, then:
- Sign up to our forum and/or Facebook group.
- We are MOVING VENUES for the next three Mondays (1st, 8th, 15th) to HERE, as in where I am typing this, while the St. John's folks redecorate the whole place. More details on the club site and FB group.
On which score, I've just spent an hour rearranging things in the terrain workshop half of the studio so we can fit three scenery cupboards, 36 baseboards and three gaming tables in (which includes solving problems like 'where do the Omaha boards go?' :D
The shaker sounds a great idea. It would be good if you could gives an update afte a few goes to see how well it works and if there are any issues
ReplyDeleteYep, I'd like to hear how that shaker works out. I just bought some BBs to use as agitators as I was having the same problem.
