Happy new year! Just thought I'd share a few bits and pieces from the last few weeks of 2015.
I'm very excited to now be painting some Infinity models as I want to get more games in and possibly a tournament this year. I find the models fantastically detailed and a pleasure to paint. I purchased this box of Highlanders a few months ago now, but they had been left behind while I pushed ahead to get most of my Pagan Rus stuff for Saga painted. Plus I wasn't too confident in taking on the kilts at the time but after the stripy goodness of the Rus and some practice runs random warhammer mini's I figured I'd give it a crack.
I'm pretty happy with the kilts, I'll definitely get better as I get more of the figures done. I'm onto the starter box next (have already started the SAS model) so will be practicing my camouflage as well!

45th Highlander Rifles
Conner MacLeod, Stephan, Ramirez and Rob Roy!
I placed an order with War and Peace for a unit of Joms and a Character figure for Saga. The latter of which was a gift to my Brother. I'll have to sort a photo out of the finished product with him as I've already given it to him for Christmas. The Joms will fit nicely into my Pagan Rus warband as a warrior unit. They are pretty much complete and have seen a few battles already, I just have to highlight the pants and will put a photo up with my next post.
This dude looks like a beast! He will be a worthy opponent for any Warlord who dares cross his path!
We squeezed in a few more practice games of Saga before our little family/friend Christmas Saga Bash. This feast for Crows was a fun and bloody match up with a heap of laughs and crazy dice rolls!
I would end up leading my Pagan Rus to victory in the end of year tourney in what was a fun day and one of the best Christmas get togethers I can remember.
Cheers all, thanks for the inspiring blog posts you all shared in 2015!
Happy gaming!

ReplyDeleteIt was a great day indeed. Highlanders look awesome, great job on the tartan!
ReplyDeleteThanks, they look better in person i think. Can check em out on Sunday as well as the SAS guy from the starter pack.
DeleteSounds like a plan, you'll be able to get a shot of that Viking warchief then as well.
DeleteGreat paintwork on the tartan!
ReplyDeleteCheers Rodger! It was pretty challenging, but fun in the end. I'm keen to do some more next week.
DeleteExcellent work on the kilts, Nate! Nice Saga gaming too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, I'm about to start on another one tonight. Cheers for stopping by.
