My latest Stargrave crew assembled to track down and battle it out with the convict crew I painted earlier. I used parts from Stargrave plastic kits, Wargames Atlantic plastic kits, Mantic plastic ...
@Georg Dierkes love the idol! Indiana Jones is on his way!
@JTam Not really, given that plastic is superior to both metals and 3D-prints in terms of kit-bashability, customisation, ease of assembly, quality of sculpting... need I go on?
Has anyone noticed that the buckles of the belts and baldrics are mounted the wrong way, upside-down ? Strange effect.
Cutting those shingles was a pain in the rear
@Caratacus This is the same as saying we don't need a plastic kit, there's already nice metals.
And here's building number 3 And now lets chill on the Couch with my wife and cut some shingles
It's all about the mortars... just sayin' 🤣
@Geoff Maybury Sorry to hear you have been have problems, real life can be a pain to deal with at times.
I've messaged Hudson through facebook about the spambot.
@JTam In the case of the Sinbad crew, we don't need an STL when there is already a good plastic kit for the subject in question.
@JTam no I only sketched the third.... because of boredom at a family dinner I more like a chaotic builder, I just start and see were it goes from there
@Red Bee Maybe you can rename the thread "The Damned Master Thread" or some such.... As that's largely what it's become. Might make it easier for visitors looking for info and s...
So this is semi interesting. The blurb: The render: 5. Appears to be the autocannon. Certainly appears to be about to be fed with an autocannon sized magazine. https://wargame...
You know looking at the articles.... this may be a glimpse of what we're going to see in an eventual Deathfields game. So the ruleset might be more like Proper 40k in comparison to most modern tabl...
@Hudson Adams We've got a spambot
There was a sneak peak today (15 MAY 23) today as well. There was renders of some nice looking generic pirates: Urge to drink rum intensifies. An armored Turkish admiral: Lo...
Blog post on the heavy weapons: https://wargamesatlantic.com/blogs/news/up-close-the-damned-heavy-support-teams These look great. Easily the best heavy weapons WGAs ever done. &n...
@Andreas Mayrhofer Did you do sketches for all the houses? Feel like scanning them? ;)
@Andreas Mayrhofer T This is going to be an awesome table. Inspirational.
Polish Uhlans dropped as well: Another great set. Really nice subject matter and sculpting. It would be great to see this translated into plastic at some point. WGA seems to be lead...
@Geoff Maybury Some great ideas. Thanks Brother.
The "82nd Airborne" just dropped. An awesome bonus set for MAY/FEB. Overall these look amazing. The belts and suspenders are corrected over the first renders which is awesome. There is one no...
@Nostalgia - Wow, I didn't see the contest enries until now, and there was a lot of excellent work from everyone involved, but that skeleton painter really went above and beyond! :)
By the sound of it, there might be a browser setting that is interfering with the links, maybe an over-protective security or privacy setting? Just a guess. (Those bottom two links abso...
@JTam Indeed it is one model from the Victrix plastic Celtic Chariot kit.
@JTam Hmm, we already have those from North Star:
Good summary/roll up on Bell of Lost Souls: https://www.belloflostsouls.net/2023/05/the-damned-cultists-come-in-hot-from-hell-with-wargames-atlantic-and-miniwargaming.html
Hard to go wrong with round bases with a bit of texture and small rocks. Disagree. Only markers and fanatics go on round bases, and premade terrain can get in the way of attaching the mini in ju...
@Dennis Horne 6' by 6' sounds about right for a company action..... But that's not going to be a easy to find table.
@JTam Paper I make all clothing conversions first in paper to get the "Cut" of the garment right. Then a very thin milliput coat is put on to texture and hide seams, on such as this great coat Some...
A praise for your awesome work (and patience), I remember when on the old WD magazine there were some paper houses' plans for WH, but naturally these ones are REALLY different👍
I have just got a copy of Osprey Games Xenos Rampant . This handles a roughly company sized battle group with some artillery and vehicle involvement on a 6"*6" table, platoon sized on a 4"*4". It ...
And a quick sketch for house number 3
@Caratacus couldn't have said it better myself.
Sneak Peak from Friday's email of 12 MAY 23: Hard to go wrong with round bases with a bit of texture and small rocks.
@Andreas Mayrhofer @Yronimos Whateley The links don't work for me either. But I assume we are referring to the digital products monthly threads.... They are easy to find a...
@Andreas Mayrhofer just read the main news post, and I agree that these are 100% awesome... that sorts "Enhanced Mutants" for Stargrave right there, and I'm just going back through my old "Mutant C...
Clearly, they are a Combine.
A "sorrow" of harvesters - obviously.
@Geoff Maybury Is the back of her coat plastruct or paper? Nice effect.
@Andreas Mayrhofer They look good. Enough gas mask heads and Ripperguns so I'm happy. Some of the close combat weapons look great too. I wonder how they scale with t...
@Caratacus It's worth noting that there are no differences (from memory) between lasguns and autoguns stats wise in the current edition. I consider them pretty much interchangeable at ...
Chu chu here goes the hype train These brutes are 🔥
I got to squeeze in some hobby time.
