Tale of 4 Oldhammer Gamers - Pt.10: 20 Half Orcs

So my counts this is my final To4OG's post as these takes me up too 1000pts .

Note I missed posting a month due to camera problems, but I still painted up a Hobgoblin Battle Standard in that month which hasn't yet been shown but I'm saving him for next month as part of a full army shot.

Right this month I repainted my Half Orcs clothes and cloaks which I first painted for Orctober 2013.

Much happier with them now.

Just need to finish a movement tray and I'm calling it a day.

Boy going for a horde army for To4OG wasn't my cleaverest move hehe

Anyway Ta Ta for now!

Blood Bowl: What!?-Fords Part 4 - Time for a Upgrade? Downgrade?

So along time ago ( Jan 2015), Ok not that long ago in the grand scheme of things I finished my Human Blood Bowl team the What!?-Fords which were named after my home town Watford and even used the colours of the Football Team (Yes I'm not a Football Fan but rather a Rugby Fan).

You can see what was the final post HERE

The team as it stands now

Chico Does Mordheim: Pt.17 - Riot The Cultist Ogre

Wow Pt.17 eh? (My lucky number as well) and still plowing onward.

So today I have for you Riot (Not to be mistaken for any other Riot you may know, well ok maybe...).

Warmaster: Araby - Progress Pt.1

As regular readers know I'm currently working on my 2nd Warmaster force, for those which may have missed it (Shame on you) you can read the start of the project here: Warmaster: Araby - The Project Begins.

How have I progressed?

Honestly?

It's been a real pain in the bum!

Why? 

Well due to the fact my first order was mostly the same few sculpts in large numbers it's been a strain keeping motivated, plus it doesn't help that the same sculpts aren't very detailed and rather soft.

Still I've gritted my teeth and grinded though (Also been breaking it up by painting Mordheim and K'47 toys) and made some progress.

GLOGGing it: 5th June

Once again a few people from around the Greater London area are having a get together in Ilford Gaming Club on the 5th of June.

Come down (Up?) and join us for a chat and a game or two. It's doesn't have to be Oldhammer and feel free to arrange and game whatever you wish, as it's a normal games Club no doubt people will be gaming random bits anyway.

Me? Well once again I'll be Mordheiming it up with the Riot Maker himself (Which may or maynot get molested.. just sayin') and Paul/Golgfag1 in a 3 way 1000gc stand alone game.

The Congregation of the Twin Tailed Comet will make the streets run red.

Warmaster: Araby - The Project Begins

As regular readers know I like my smaller scales and one of my favourite scales is 10mm.

Already having 1 10mm army (My Orcs) I thought it was time to get them someone to bash or in the case of my Orcs lose too.

So what army to choose? It has too be a army I can build from alternative figure ranges as GW figures sell for silly (and I do mean silly) amounts.

Dark Elves? Tempting but I'm not too keen on the alternative minis.

Kislev? These ended up being close to the army I went with as most of the army could be built from Historic Polish.

Skaven? Sadly no suitable alternative ranges I liked, Gun wielding Mice though...

Araby? Bingo! Alternative ranges? Check! as there's both Fantasy and Historic ranges that'll fit and I'll get to run fun toys like Flying Carpets and elephants.

Well anyway one small test order and a few weeks wait and here's the first bits though the door:

Happy 3rd Birthday Bloggy!

Just a quick post but it's my Bloggys 3rd birthday.

Started back in 2013 when Oldhammer was still very new and nowhere near as popular. I've watched the movement grow to a staggering amount of people/project/Blogs/groups.

While  have somewhat moved on from Oldd School gaming into a wide range of other games the Blog was always the one constant that hasn't changed much, that is bad jokes, blurry pictures and lots of typos.

Anyway here's to another few years! 

Chico Does Mordheim: Pt.16 - The Congregation of the Twin Tailed Comet

Hey boys and girls if you remember from this post The Random Cultist Project I picked up some of the fantastic Frostyballs Cultists to use in Chicoheim™.

I have to say even being plastic they were a joy to paint, it allowed me to try a brighter then normal paint scheme without worrying too much.

Calling all Greater London: Oldhammer Gits & Gamers

This Sunday at Ilford Gaming Club (1-6pm) a few of us Oldhammers/Old Gits/Sexeh Peoples are meeting for a bit of a chat and game.

So come join us and maybe play a game or two or at the very least talk toys.

Me I'm looking forward to Da Royal Court getting set loose in a either a game of Mordheim and/or Frostyballs..err grave.

Hope to see you there!
