Basing Emmet Gates

Having finished painting Emmet Gates, I started on the base.

I first gave it a basecoat of Citadel Texture: Armageddon Dust.

What I did note was that it didn’t quite cover the coin as well as I thought it would. So for my other Foundry models I will use a bit of green stuff to texture the base.

Once the paint was dry, I drybrushed with Citadel Layer: Ushabti Bone and then used some Citadel Mordheim Turf.

No More Warhammer Historical

It would appear that Games Workshop have closed down Warhammer Historical.

I have bought many of their publications in the past, really liked the production values, though I know many hard-core gamers looked down on the rules, I always thought that they were simple yet fun.

I should have guessed something was in the air when they did their relatively recent half-price sale. Then I got the new Great War supplement, the hardbacked Waterloo rules and the Old West expansion.

Gunfighters and Outlaws

I was lucky enough to get for one Christmas a few years back two packs of Foundry Old West Outlaws. I am in the process of painting the models using a variety of colours.

I am in the main using Vallejo paints that I bought for my Flames of War miniatures alongside some Citadel paints too.

Have a look at my Old West miniatures Gallery and Old West Workbench.
