Caroline, oh Caroline!

She's finished! Eeee! The pink Fencer, after deciding on her name of Caroline, is ready to destroy those dirty, horrible, science-hating Combine forces!  She's thoroughly gorgeous and she'll overrun anyone that says otherwise. I panicked somewhat when I first added the black lining after the basecoat, but thankfully (I think) the topcoat went on quite nicely and covered the fact that it looked bloody awful at that time.  Paint covers a multitude of sins, thank goodness!


You'll also see, in the background of Caroline's glamour shot, the beginnings of my Royal Household Pan-European forces. Slow progress, I will admit, but I'm quite pleased with the results of the first few units.  Hooray me and hooray black ink!


Okay then. In addition to Caroline, the pink Fencer of DOOM, and the Pan-Euros, I've been working on some bases of trees. Below is a picture of my box'o'trees.  It's not quite hundreds, but it'll cover enough to be getting on with. Roughly twice that number again and I'll be done! Simples!

Yay pictures!

Also, my power supply and new PC components are in the mail, so fingers crossed they'll arrive by the weekend and I can resurrect the Armies of Greyhawk series. I haven't forgotten and those lists are still coming!

Slacker #3 reporting in...

Right. No updates. It's because it's my birthday and I'm still on holiday in England. So peaceful, so relaxing, so slow-paced. This ----------------> is my early-morning view most days. Yes, a bit blurry and washed because of the sunrise, but I don't think I'll ever stop appreciating how green and beautiful the whole place is here. Now if only we could have a government that wasn't full of stupid and neo conservatives desperate to protect our children from boobies at every turn. Ahem, sorry about that.

SO! This isn't an Armies of Greyhawk update (because being numpty stupid-head that I am I forgot my notebook with everything). Instead, I'm posting up a couple images from my trusty digicam of some trees 'wot I done finished' before I left.  Click to embiggen and stuff.


When I get back home (Well, the Americas, anyway) however, I will be, after doing the dishes, engaging with some Ogre painting madness.  Well, actually not any Ogres...But at least one Fencer and various tanky types.  Woo fun times!  Will I get them finished before the game in May? Probably not, which is likely to cause much mockery by the people who will then shoot all my unfinished lead, but it'll be fun to try! Pics and more Armies of Greyhawk updates to come. Promise!
