Who craps in the forest?

Bears. Bears crap in the forest.

Got myself a bear family from Bad Squiddo Games a while back. Somehow I seem to be in some kind of animal painting mood right now.

Bad Piggies!

I'm not dead yet!!!

I painted up the Bad Squiddo Games' Pigs at the farm set for our Penguin Easter Challenge.

I mounted all the pieces on a base on which I added a Renedra outbuilding. After painting all the things I tarted up the base with Vallejo earth paste, various tufts (also available from Bad Squiddo Games) and pig-ments (oink oink).

Assembling an invasion force.

Six weeks to go, and it's time to put a dent in the pile of shame. For this year's convention game we are doing Holland 1940 with lots of dastardly German fallschirmjäger raining down on the happless Dutch defenders. I actually had more than a platoon of German paratroopers bought about 20 years ago; a mix of Wargames Foundry and Crusader miniatures. About a squad were painted and another squad and a half basecoated and in various stages of completion. Unfortunately all were based on standard Games Workshop bases which I have since abandondoned for historical games. So rebaseing were in order.

Oh the joys of rebasing. At the same time I fitted the figures on to team bases from Sarissa.
