Updated my blog

Post by obriendavid » Wed Apr 11, 2012 4:03 pm

i've finally gotten around to finishing off my French artillery battery I've been basing for ages inbetween writing scenarios for Four Empires. I've also added some shots of some infantry just based as well.

Why, Dave O'Brian, I did not know you were a closet GW fan!

I have four or five Necromunda gangs painted up. I don't think the pics are on the web any more, but my 28mm Inquisitor stuff is still up:

I have linked your blog to mine to keep a better eye on you...

It was Necromunda that got me down the GW road, I've still got 3 of my gangs painted then got tempted by Warhammer and had a lovely Orc and Goblin army before finally opting for a Chaos 40K army which I still have but haven't used for years, very like a lot of my wargames armies.
With so many friends designing the figures and illustration for GW it's not really surprising that temptation was too much for me.

I agree I find painting a hell of a lot easier than taking pictures of the results as well.

That is interesting I have never tried that & it cant produce worse results than my attempts at still photography. Of course I will have to get my poor old Camera fixed first. :(
