April Update

 April has been a pretty busy month we have had 3 weeks of building work going on in the house so very little has progressed with the goblins. As the dust around the house has just been unbelievable as nearly ever room upstairs had some work done.

I pledged on the recent Crooked Dice Pirates of Luna City Pulp Kickstarter there are some excellent looking Lion Guard and Lion Shieldmaster's which I plan to use as extras with my Thundercats and eventually Flash Gordon games so looking forward to those arriving. If anyone is interested you can still get in on the kickstarter through the pledge manager on the Crooked Dice Web Store. LINK





I've got two events booked this year. The 7TV Fantasy one in July and a Burrows and Badgers one in October. Talking of which I picked up a few models from the previous Oathsworn kickstarter last month I couldn't join that one due to timings with other projects. But I grabbed the Badger Ranger, Otter Ranger, Cat Huntress and Feist Road Warden of which I love the little Wasp tracker he has in his hand. I've managed to get them cleaned up, based and primed.




Goblins wise. I still need to finish base coating the king and the other 4 models that I need for my 7TV Fantasy Event cast. I am hoping to chip away at these over the next few weeks.

  1. Building dust can linger around for ages, so hope it settles quickly Simon, and can get back on with your goblins, the burrows models look great and look forward to seeing them in paint

  2. You'll be tasting dust for quite some time yet, it does hang around for a while. The figures look cool. Can't wait ho see your Flash Gordon figures, are they based on the 80's film or the old Buster Crabbe b&w series?

    1. Thanks Ray! Yeah I know it sucks! I believe they are mixture of sources including some nods to the cartoons!

  3. Sorry to hear that the building work is slowing things down, I am sure it will be worth it in the end.

  4. Grown up stuff always ruins our hobby plans. Rubbish if you ask me.

    Loving the new B&B fig choices! Have been waiting for their new KS eagerly as it has lots of civilian/non-combat sculpts to add flavour to our tables.

    1. Grown up stuff sucks! I am looking forward to several of the townfolk models. Especially the boxing hare!

  5. Dust is my personal enemy as I have an overactive sinus so I feel for you. The minis do have potential ... lots of details to paint.
