Unfortunately a couple of games postponed this week due to some illness (not mine) although I’m hoping to get at least one battle this weekend, I also managed to negotiate my wife’s birthday, and gain some browny points to get some hobby painting done.
First up some ECW baggage/objectives, as part of the haul from Battleground I picked up loads of ECW bits and pieces. In fact as they were a job lot, really more than I need. The wagons are from their generic wagon range, I have about six more ! The figures are mainly an Engineering team all are by Hallmark Figures who I believe are no longer trading. The barrels are OO railway bits I had in a box.
I mentioned previously that I wanted to improve the wound counters for ECW, after a lot of thought on these I picked up the relevant bits from Pendraken. Took quite a longer time to put these together (I have about 40 done now) but happy with the outcome. I have kept them fairly generic so they can also be used to tidy up our Ancient games using Kings of War as well. Green dice so I hope they will be slightly less obvious on photos ?
Finally for this post and also secondhand from the Battleground show a nice addition to my Italian collection. This came as a resin kit with metals wheels etc. 1/56 scale by CompanyB. I really don’t need anymore Italians……but you never know.
That’s it for now, I’m on with both painting and fiddling about with the railway this afternoon, and then hopefully a game this evening.
Thanks for checking in Matt ♥️
Your baggage vignettes look great! They could be utilized as camps too. My armies need something similar. What is on deck for your weekend gaming festivities?
ReplyDeleteMatt, when they look that good, you can't have too many Italians. Great work on the baggage cart and crews, will look good on the table.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the ' dice holders ' I smiled...started the idea on some homegrown stands some time ago, now will need to find to complete.
