Tale of 1 Bored Gamer - Ogre Army Project Log

 

Welcome ladies and gents to the start of a random project that I didn't even know I was going to do until the end of last week.

So really there is little to no planning, but I do have a goal: Paint Ogres and a end goal: Drink lotza booze when Ogres are done.

So with that in mine this is what I'm working with:

Kings of War Vanguard: Da Royal Court Orcs Vs Dorfs.

 

Welcome back boys and ghouls to my wee corner of the interwebs.

Alas hobbywise not much has been happening as I was laid out from Flu for quite awhile and my hobby mojo has yet to return.

With the goal in mind to keep this Blog updated again I'd thought it best to post something so a 3/4 weeks ago I managed to get a game of Vanguard in with my Orcs.

Bushido: More Savage Wave, House & Torii Gate

Good morning/afternoon/night my loyal readers of the darkest dankest Blog of Vice and Dice.

I've been a bit lax updating this Blog with my efforts mostly being on posting on Fannybook for ease and pure laziness on my part.

But I have 2 Bushido posts coming up for you reading pleasure.

First is a general update than tomorrow a Battlereport/photo dump of my latest game.

Warband so far, 13 buggers with 3 more to finish.

Bushido: 3D Printed House and Scatter Terrain

Welcome loyal readers who still like to punish themselves by reading my ol' somewhat hobby butterfly Blog.

Nothing too exciting today I'm afraid with just some scenery for my WIP Bushido 2x2 gaming board.

Bolt Action: Defence of Berlin German Force

So regular readers know that I love my WW2 gaming in the form of Bolt Action by Warlord Games.

For me it's the perfect blend of historic forces and freedom to not worry too much about historically correct forces and rivet counting. While some people love making 100% correct forces right down to the correct camo underwear, it just isn't for me.

With this in mind I tend to build my Bolt Action forces within a loose theme such as a Late War Winter German Wehrmacht rather than say a rather more specific theatre, Regiment or month/year. 

But this time I've gone for a tad more specific for my latest force, a ''Defence of Berlin'' army, a rag tag bunch of 33rd Waffen SS, Hitler Youth and old men, police, firemen and rear echelon Heer.

You can see thsi force in action from the Battle Report I did a few weeks ago:

Bolt Action: Battle Report - 33rd Waffen SS ''Charlemagne'' Vs British Airborne

3D Printing... I bloody love it!

Wow been awhile since the last post, I made that fatal mistake of stating that it was getting warmer again and that I'd start getting back in the flow of things..

What happened.. The Beast for the East and the worst weather in decades... Ooops!

Still I'm almost got back into the hobby swing so it's time for some Blogging! (Yay?).

So we all know about 3D printing and how it's been slowly but surely improving and getting cheaper over the last few years.

I'm a big fan of it myself so I'd thought I'd share my experience.
