Birthday bash was a game day at the local gaming shop, also the future location for the West Mid-Lards game day.
A selection of "alien" aliens ran over a combined force of 20mm modern British, 28mm judges and 32mm ODST troopers in Xenos rampant. Then there was a mess of a dogfight ending in a crash!

I haven't read it yet but the reviews sound promising and now I've got a bunch of cave people to paint so I'm pretty happy all around already!

They appear to have all the old Studio miniatures range but just so you know they appear to be more of a 25mm scale.
And ta!

All based and done!
I'm extra proud because I felt I'd missed part of her lip when I painted her and when I saw the picture I confirmed it.
It's not like anyone will see it. Or could see it!
But I have some VERY small brushes. Generally too small to be useful.
Anyway, now she has a full smile.

I saw this company at Hammerhead. They appear to have all the old Studio miniatures range which is nice. Lots of famous character types but just be warned I think these are more 25mm (or big 20mm) scalings. You can just build up the base a touch though if needed.

I'd say "like that". I wouldn't worry too much about if it's a bit dark/light as the first bit of sun or rain would alter the look. Plus contacted against however you do skin, basing etc can change the impression.

First attempt at this model went SO well I had to strip her (oo-er missus).
Much better now. She'll be a paranormal investigator in Silver Bayonet, different investigator in When nightmares come, wizard for Frostgrave, commanding officer in the ACW... whatever really!

You can write one but who knows where it should go. I'd bet Japan but couldn't be more precise.

Getting a few things together for spraying so I'm making the outlaw side for the OK corral scenario in Lard mag 2023(?). I'm differentiating them by hats and poses. These are the Clantons, Ike gets the long coat, Billy being a greenhorn, hasn't drawn.
Big fan of these Great escape plastics already.

It's ok, for 10mm and below it can be quite suitable. Hell, at 6mm it's almost necessary!

Still sounds like something that the players should control. I don't think it's reasonable to say "I got a bit heated so I punched him". Wouldn't fly down the pub on a Saturday, shouldn't mid game either.

Yeah, but if, for example, in the NFL you were to say it's a contact sport and you were protecting your QB you'd be fined, suspended and thrown out which I think is a much more reasonable response to a fight in a game.
